Purple Line

Wilshire/La Cienega is an under-construction heavy-rail subway station in the Los Angeles County Metro Rail system. It is currently in the design/construction phase of the Purple Line Extension project, in Beverly Hills, California. It is slated to open in early 2023.[1][2][3]

The site formerly housed a Washington Mutual (later a Chase) bank, which was demolished to build the station.[4]
