7th Street/Metro Center station is an underground light rail and rapid transit (known locally as a subway) station on the A, B, D, and E lines of the Los Angeles Metro Rail system. The station also has street level stops for the J Line of the Los Angeles Metro Busway system. The station is located under 7th Street, after which the station is named, at its intersections with Figueroa, Flower and Hope Streets.[1]

It is officially named 7th Street/Metro Center/Julian Dixon station after former U.S. Rep. Julian Dixon, who had a pivotal role in obtaining the federal funding that enabled construction of the Metro Rail system.[2]

History

7th Street/Metro Center was constructed by the Southern California Rapid Transit District, which later became part of today's LA Metro, as part of the first Шаблон:Convert minimum operating segment (MOS-1) of the Metro Rail subway (now B Line). Ground was broken for the project on September 29, 1986.[3]

The upper level of this station, used by light rail trains, opened on February 15, 1991,[4] nearly two years before the rest of the MOS-1 subway stations. However, the opening was several months after the rest of the Blue Line's (now A Line) stations.[5] The lower level subway platform opened with the rest of the MOS-1 segment stations on January 30, 1993.[6]

Metro spent nearly $2 million worth of enhancements to 7th Street/Metro Center station as part of the Expo Line project,Шаблон:When which was completed weeks before the Expo Line (now E Line) began service to La Cienega/Jefferson station. These enhancements included a new dispatch booth and improved signage in the station.[7]

The station served as the northern and eastern terminus for the A Line and E Line, respectively. Both lines were extended on June 16, 2023 as part of the Regional Connector Transit Project.

The station was the first underground station in the Metro system, and consists of three underground levels. The main concourse is on the first level down, the light rail side platforms are on the second level down, while the heavy rail island platform is on the third level down. A small first level mezzanine connects the light rail side platforms. The Metro Silver Line stops at the street level next to the station's entrances. The station has direct access to The Bloc Shopping Mall (formerly known as Broadway/Macy's Plaza) with a pedestrian-friendly entrance from the mall directly to the subway station.

This is one of only two stations in the entire system that has underground side platforms, the other being the Wilshire/Vermont station. Шаблон:Clear left Шаблон:LACMTA Platform Layout 7th Street/Metro Center
