Florence is a standard street-level blue line station along the private ROW, with the two blue line tracks separated from two freight tracks to the west of the light rail line by a fence. The station has a single entrance from the fully belled and gated grade crossing of Florence Avenue that has a short walkway that leads to a ramp up to the northern end of the platform. Here there is a single canopy that covers the station's TVMs before the platform begins and about the length of half an LRV. The platform continues south fully exposed with just an emergency exit via a staircase at the southern end. The tops of station name signs along the platform have large ceramic murals that are http://www.metro.net/about/art/locations/vernon-station/ A Florence Moment by Ricardo Duffy depicting scenes of areas and residents of the surrounding community.
