Last time I was in LAUPT was June 2006 when I took the train down to San Diego. It was a bit depressing to see this beautiful wing of the station being unused. A security guard told me the wing was rented out to TV and movie productions. |

Posted by Alan Follett on Thu Feb 23 13:50:48 2012, in response to Re: Union Station Los Angeles PHOTOS, posted by Dave on Thu Feb 23 05:57:38 2012. The LAUPT ticket office (with separate locations for Amtrak and Metrolink) was relocated in the 1990's as a result of changes in pedestrian traffic flow through the station stemming from the opening of the Red Line (and later Gold Lne) station, and the connection of the concourse to the MTA headquarters building at the east end. As originally built, all passengers entered at the front (west end) of the building, stopped in the ticketing hall if necessary, and proceeded through the waiting room to the concourse. With the current commuter-oriented traffic flow, the original ticket window location would have meant a long detour for passengers coming in from the Metro, or from the east end of the concourse. Hence, ticket windows were relocated closer to the center of the station, just off the junction between the waiting room and concourse.But, you're right, the present Amtrak ticket windows are pretty bland compared with the magnificence of the original facility, and of course completely out of character archtecturally with the rest of the station.
