Highland Park station (Los Angeles Metro)
Highland Park station is an at-grade light rail station on the A Line of the Los Angeles Metro Rail system. It is located at the intersection of North Avenue 57 at Marmion Way (one block north of North Figueroa Street) in the Highland Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, after which the station is named. The station opened on July 26, 2003, as part of the original Gold Line, then known as the "Pasadena Metro Blue Line" project.  The original Highland Park station and freight depot, for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, was demolished in 1965.[3] During the construction and planning stages, Highland Park station was originally planned to be named Avenue 57 station, named for nearby Avenue 57. It was one of three stations to be renamed shortly before the line's opening. The station features an architectural sculpture, called 'Stone Tree Inverted Post (Bound Water Light),' created by artist Jud Fine.[4] ServiceHours and frequencyA Line service hours are from approximately 4:30 a.m. and 11:45 p.m daily.
