Highland Park (Los Angeles Metro station)

Highland Park Station is an at-grade light rail station in the Los Angeles County Metro Rail system. It is located near the intersection of North Avenue 57 at Marmion Way (one block north of North Figueroa Street) in the Highland Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. The station is served by the Gold Line.

The station features an architectural design, called Stone Tree Inverted Post (Bound Water Light), created by artist Jud Fine.

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 lines opening.

The station was at the same site of a Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe station, also named Highland Park. The depot was torn down in 1965.
