Always kinda felt like a forgotton station, but maybe people from West LA are visiitng more?
The Farmers Market/Grove are busier than I saw a couple of months ago or even a month ago. Both were absolultely packed. Third and Fairfax looks pretty vibrant these days, its all just spilling over.
Hollywood Blvd was pretty busy earlier in the morning too.
Transit related? Tourism increase? Something changed. I will say I saw lots of Asians tourists, are they possibly retunring?

Just think what a 3rd street promenade station would do for that whole area. I'm almost willing to pause the E line eastward expansion if it means we can use that 8 billion dollars to push the D line to the beach.
