Aviation/Century station is an elevated light rail station on the K Line of the Los Angeles Metro Rail system. It is located alongside Aviation Boulevard above its intersection of Century Boulevard, located in the Westchester neighborhood of Los Angeles.
Construction on the station is complete but it is not expected to open until Fall 2023 due to construction of the LAX Automated People Mover and the infill LAX/Metro Transit Center station.[2]
The Century railroad bridge was demolished on July 25, 2014, to make way for the station.
The station incorporates artwork by the artist Sherin Guirguis.[3]
