About Los Angeles State Historic Park

A stretch of cleared ground runs between Spring Street and the Metro A Line tracks, land that once served as a rail yard before industrial use left it as a brownfield. Locals know it by the nickname the Cornfield, a reference tied to its past. Sitting within the Chinatown neighborhood, the grounds offer an open, elongated layout shaped by the rail corridor that once occupied the space.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
