Mezzanine level of the station

Hollywood/Western station has a single island platform oriented east–west under Hollywood Boulevard, with a mezzanine above. The single station entrance and elevator are located in a plaza on the southeast corner of the intersection.[2] The station was designed by Escudero–Fribourg Architects, while May Sun designed the interior finish and artworks, which reflect the neighborhood's immigrant heritage.[3] The walls and floors are covered by black, gray, and white tiles, with colorful highlights on the walls.[4] Armenian, Chinese, and Mayan symbols are depicted on granite pavers. Some wall panels display historic photographs of the neighborhood; others have depictions of fossils discovered during excavation of the station.[3] Sculptures of two Pacific Electric Red Cars hang over the platform from the mezzanine wall.[5]
