Metro Liner Orange Line BRT (bus rapid transitway) service hours are approximately from 4:00 AM until 1:00 AM daily.
Underground passageway
Metro constructed a second entrance on the west side of Lankershim Boulevard, which would allow riders to connect between the Orange Line (surface bus rapid transit) and the Red Line (underground heavy rail) via an underground passageway. This underground connection was completed in August 2016.
Location
North Hollywood Metro station is located on Lankershim Boulevard, which forms the western border of the station and parking lot; it is bordered on its South side by Chandler Boulevard. It is one block South of Burbank Boulevard (but is not bordered by Burbank) and is one block West of Vineland Avenue (but is not bordered by Vineland). The station is located in district of the same name in the San Fernando Valley section of Los Angeles.
Transit-oriented development
Since the opening of the station in 2000, transit-oriented developments have begun to be constructed adjacent to the station. NoHo Tower (a 15-story apartment building) is across the street from the station and NoHo Commons, a multi-use complex which includes several floors of apartments above a level of retail. In September 2007, transportation officials approved NoHo Art Wave, the largest "transit-oriented" development in L.A. County history, consisting of a $1.3-billion apartment, retail and high-rise office tower complex totaling more than 1,700,000 square feet (160,000 m2) of development on 15.6 acres (63,000 m2). That project did not start due to the recession but in 2016 a public-private partnership with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority was proposed on the 16 acres (6.5 ha) surrounding the station.
Lankershim Depot
The Southern Pacific Railway built the Lankershim Depot in 1896 on land that is adjacent to the current Orange Line platforms. It later served as a stop on the Pacific Electric system after its North Hollywood Line opened in 1911. In 2014, the station was restored for a cost of $3.6 million, and is currently occupied by a coffee shop.
