The Purple Line can branch off onto 6th st in Downtown and continue as it becomes Whittier Blvd all the way to Santa Fe/Whittier/Washington. Maybe from that point on, the Gold Line could take over on Whittier Blvd in a Phase III to Beach Blvd. Imagine, a subway from Santa Monica to Whittier.
I agree on the Purple Line extension down Whittier (with a complementary Red extension to CSULA and up Garvey), but ideally the Gold Line should act as a feeder service to the Purple Line down the Whittier corridor.
