Aviation/Century

Aviation/Century station is an elevated light rail station on the C and K lines of the Los Angeles Metro Rail system. It is located alongside Aviation Boulevard above its intersection with Century Boulevard, located in the Westchester neighborhood of Los Angeles. Construction on the station was completed with the rest of the initial line in late 2022, but its opening was delayed to November 3, 2024 due to construction on SkyLink and the LAX/Metro Transit Center. Aviation/Century is the second-newest station in the Los Angeles Metro Rail system after LAX/Metro Transit Center, which opened on June 6, 2025. The Santa Fe's Century railroad bridge was demolished on July 25, 2014, to make way for the station.

The station incorporates artwork by the artist Sherin Guirguis. The main component of the Aviation station art is a richly colored artwork for the platform and fence. Filled with yellow designs and patterns, the artwork reflects the diversity of the surrounding neighborhood and the rest of Los Angeles County, representing those who migrated to the area.
