Location

The station was initially named Hawthorne Blvd/I-105 but was later simplified to Hawthorne/Lennox in 2012 with its location clarified.

The SoFi Stadium Shuttle serves this station on football game days and other major events. Buses typically leave every 5-8 minutes to transport fans to the stadium. To speed service, fares are not collected onboard the shuttle, but a valid Metro fare is still required to pass the faregates and enter the platform at this station.
