Union Station Terminal and Landscaped Grounds Est. 1939 National Register
L.A. Historic Cultural Monument 101
| Designed by architects John and Donald B. Parkinson, with landscape architect Tommy Tomson, in a Streamline Moderne & Spanish Style. Three of the nation's major railroads, Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and Union Pacific, pooled their resources in 1933 and proceeded with the construction of the Station. For even the most sophisticated traveler, the Los Angeles Union Station Terminal, typically Californian in aspect, is likely to evoke some of the excitement and nostalgia of days gone by. Declared: 8/2/72 |

Pacific Electric Depot Est. 1911
| This was not the main depot that was on 5th and Harbor Boulevard, which has long been razed. This was on the northwest corner of 22nd Street and Signal Street (about 1 1/2 mile south of the main depot). During World War I it served the old Navy Landing and Submarine Base that was across the street. This was were navy personnel would catch the Red Car to go into town (San Pedro) or all the way into Los Angeles during leave. The station was probably built in 1911 when the Outer Harbor Line was open for service. Service was discontinued on the Outer Harbor Line in April 1924. The newly restored Pacific Electric Red Car that now runs down the waterfront along part of this original line on weekends is housed in a large white tent-like shelter just west of here on 22nd Street. I used to work at the Municipal Fish Markets that were one block east of here and in the early 1980s, the place was used as a sandwich shop called the "Sandwich Depot" and it was painted tan at the time. The P.E. Depot is the taller building on the left. John R. Kielbasa |
