Located on Century Boulevard leading to LAX, this station area is the gateway to Los Angeles. The elevated railroad ROW is unique along the light rail alignment. With the exception of a large residential area to the east of Aviation Boulevard, almost all the built form is characteristic of larger format commercial, industrial and service use. The station area is dominated by a  significantly large under-utilized surface parking lot and surrounded by large parking structures. Airport related uses such as hotel, office, and industrial dominate the area. There is also a significant number of parking lots and parking garages for persons commuting to LAX. East of Aviation Boulevard, there is a residential community with a large number of vacant lots. This is related to future LAX development. 

It is anticipated that a people-mover will be implemented by LAWA connecting the station to the airport in the future. There are significant amounts of hospitality and commercial office uses. However, there is a lack of entertainment venues or accessible open spaces. Several adjacent sites will become available as the consolidated rental facility is implemented.

Century Boulevard is the main boulevard leading to LAX, and because of this airport proximity, the area has a well-established market for both hotels and office space.  The Green Line from the east will connect to the Crenshaw Line at this station and the people mover system will connect this station vicinity with the LAX Terminals.
