Preserve L.A. has an update on the old 1920s subway tunnel entrance visible on West 2nd Street at Beverly near downtown. There was a City Hall hearing today about the plans by Meta Housing Developers to convert the tunnel mouth and makeshift dirt soccer field into 276 loft-style apartments. Turns out the site has a name: when the Red Cars were running, it was the Toluca Subway Yard. Westworld has a photo tour. (Via L.A. Blogs)
