Metro seems to be deactivating tall fare gates at stations like Civic Center/Grand Park, Aviation/Imperial and Westlake/MacArthur Park on random days (like today) with no explanation. They don’t coincide with any free fare days.

Taken today at the corner of 3rd and Main. The fenced off public space, which Kevin de Leon once coined “fentanyl corner,“ appears to have been relandscaped.

I wish I was in Los Angeles during the early days of the Red Line just to see the differences in station architecture. I did visit during the 1999 Rose Parade, but wasn't cognizant enough to realize what I was looking at.

They should put an In-N-Out Burger in one of the empty retail spaces at LAX/Metro Transit Center after the people mover opens.
Yes, I know there is one down the road on Sepulveda. Don’t care. Great introduction to people visiting and gives it a leg up on Union Station.
