17th Street/SMC
A bustling gateway to downtown LA’s cultural core, where modern transit meets historic landmarks and vibrant street life.
Tourist Information
Step off the Red Line at 17th Street/SMC and you’re a short walk from the iconic Walt Disney Concert Hall, the contemporary art haven of The Broad, and the historic El Pueblo de Los Angeles. Explore the lively Grand Central Market for gourmet tacos and artisanal coffee, then wander through the Arts District’s murals and boutique galleries. The station’s proximity to the Staples Center (Crypto.com Arena) makes it perfect for catching a Lakers game or a concert, while the nearby Little Tokyo offers sushi bars and kimono shops for an authentic cultural stroll.
Local Tips
- Buy a TAP card online and load fare before arrival to skip the ticket vending line.
- Check the Metro app for real‑time train arrivals; the Red Line runs every 8‑10 minutes during peak hours.
- Leave a few minutes extra if you plan to visit The Broad, as timed entry tickets often sell out quickly.
