Memorial Park
Memorial Park is at the northern end of the tunnel beneath downtown Pasadena and is still below-grade. The station has the Holly Street Village Apartments built over most of it (except the entrance ramps) and has two side platforms with lines of columns holding up the buildings that overhang them from the east. The platforms have one entrance at their southern end each with a ramp up (and staircases to supplement for portions) up to the north side of Holly Street that forms the southern tunnel portal. Artwork is The First Artists in Southern California: A Short Story by John Valadez.
