Roll up your sleeves and help give one of DTLA’s most iconic public spaces a little extra love during Pershing Square Beautification Day on Friday, June 5. Community members, volunteers, and local organizations will come together for a hands-on day of planting, painting, cleanup efforts, and neighborhood revitalization aimed at refreshing the historic Downtown gathering space ahead of a busy summer and the lead-up to major international events coming to Los Angeles. The event is designed to bring people together while making a visible impact in the heart of Downtown, with opportunities to connect with fellow Angelenos, support public space improvements, and celebrate community pride at Pershing Square.

When the Subway Terminal Building was built, the Los Angeles basin was served by over 1,000 miles of Pacific Electric interurban railway lines. The Subway Terminal Building was constructed over the underground portal of the lines that led to the San Fernando Valley and the Westside. During the building’s heyday, over 65,000 workers and shoppers passed beneath it daily.
Architects Schultze and Weaver designed the building in the Beaux Arts style with Italian Renaissance ornamentation, including monumental entrance arches, attic detailing, and rusticated walls of large cut-stone blocks. The building originally had twin entrances, one leading to a grand concourse for the subway, and the other to the office tower’s lobby. Although the office lobby retains its elegant ornamentation, the subway’s grand concourse was significantly altered in the 1950s. The subway tunnel that once ran under the building has long been closed to both trains and the public.
After a five-year, $60 million rehabilitation, the building reopened in late 2005 as Metro 417 loft-style apartments.
