This is one of two possible transfer stations with the K Line Northern Extension to Hollywood under study, the other being Wilshire/La Brea station.[5]
Adjacent to the new station is Hancock Park, a Los Angeles city park. Various museums surround the park, including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), the George C. Page Museum, the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures and the La Brea Tar Pits pavilions. Among others on Wilshire Boulevard, they make up "Museum Row" on the Miracle Mile.[6] The Petersen Automotive Museum and Craft Contemporary are within walking distance. Television City, Farmers Market and The Grove are a half mile north on Fairfax Avenue from this station.
