UNION STATION

Los Angeles Union Station is the hub of L.A. transportation. Opened in May 1939, it is known as “the last of the great railway stations” built in the U.S. It currently services approximately 400 train departures each weekday and has 14 train tracks: 2 for the Gold Line, 2 for the Red and Purple Lines and 10 shared by Amtrak, Amtrak California, and Metrolink. Think of the romance of travel on the Texas Eagle, Coast Starlight, Sunset Limited and the Southwest Chief.

Sustainability Committee - Intro to Our Work & Volunteer Opportunity

DLANC just had an election and we are awaiting the "official" results from the City Clerk's office. All the same, a special congratulations to those who ran for DLANC - and to those who won their seats, good luck!

Introduction to the DLANC Sustainability Committee Projects

For nearly two years, the Sustainability Committee has been working towards building a community greening strategy and resource toolkit for the Downtown neighborhood. We'd like to introduce you to our work and invite you to learn about what is available to you Downtown. From tree planting and urban gardens to composting and recycling programs, green streets and alleys to national grants and state-wide recognition, there are many cost-saving, energy-efficient, and affordable solutions to make where you live, work and play a better place.
