Metro constructed a second entrance on the west side of Lankershim Boulevard, which allows riders to connect between the G Line and the B Line via an underground passageway. This underground connection was completed in August 2016.

Location

North Hollywood Metro station is located on Lankershim Boulevard, which forms the western border of the station and parking lot; it is bordered on its South side by Chandler Boulevard. It is one block south of Burbank Boulevard and is one block west of Vineland Avenue. The station is located in the neighborhood of the same name in the eastern San Fernando Valley section of Los Angeles.

Development of surrounding area

Since the opening of the station in 2000, transit-oriented developments have begun to be constructed in the area around the station including thousands of apartments and office buildings. NoHo Tower is across the street from the station and NoHo Commons, a multi-use complex which includes several floors of apartments above a level of retail. In September 2007, transportation officials approved NoHo Art Wave. That project did not start due to the recession, but in 2016 a public-private partnership with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority was proposed on the surrounding the station.

Lankershim Depot

The Southern Pacific Railway built the Lankershim Depot in 1896 on land that is adjacent to the current G Line platforms. It later served as a stop on the Pacific Electric system after its North Hollywood Line opened in 1911. In 2014, the station was restored for a cost of $3.6 million, and is currently occupied by a coffee shop.
