Mariachi Plaza station is a subterranean light rail facility on the E Line within the Los Angeles Metro Rail network. Situated underneath 1st Street at Boyle Avenue, its primary exit leads directly to Mariachi Plaza, a historic entry point to the Boyle Heights community. This station commenced operations in 2009 as part of the Gold Line Eastside Extension and stands as one of two underground stations on this segment, the other being Soto.
In earlier times, prior to 1963, the Los Angeles Railway's yellow streetcars on the P Line ran along 1st Street’s surface, stopping near this current station site.
Station layout
The facility consists of two subterranean levels: a mezzanine level containing ticket vending machines and fare gates, with an island platform serving dual tracks located beneath. The single station entrance is positioned at the junction of 1st Street and Boyle Avenue, immediately next to Mariachi Plaza.
