Duarte / City of Hope Station

DBL.G.

Passed through the Duarte/ City of Hope Station recently while riding through the San Gabriel river bike path which ends alongside the City of Hope Hospital. Also known as the Gold line Metro light Rail. The Station is very well maintained & with lights and overhead roof for raining days. Directly across the City of Hope Hospital. The area is quiet and peaceful. It's near the 210Fwy and running alongside Santa Fe Dam Northern side. Some say a short rail. But from Citrus in Azusa it takes you into the Los Angeles area and passes alongside side the 210 Fwy and ends near the 5 Fwy. This is a nice addition to the metro line which provides transportation for those who can't afford a car.

Quiet area with sufficient parking nearby for $3/day, but it sounds like you have to make sure you pay asap or risk getting ticketed. Surrounding area is all residential, so it seems borderline pointless to have a station there. #USpublictransportation

Short little line that you have to switch off of and take 3 or 4 buses or walk to get anywhere. There's a reason LA's public transportation system is one of the worst in America. Plus beware of parking tickets, they have very little signage at these stops and will quickly hand out $50+ violations.

It is located across from the City of Hope at a quiet street otherwise. Beautiful views of rocks and City of Hope. Trains were on time. The Irwindale Speedway is about a mile away from here.
