103rd Street-Kenneth Hahn is a station on Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority's Metro Blue Line.
It has an island platform on the Blue Line right-of-way adjacent to Grandee Avenue near the intersection of 103rd Street roughly in the center of Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles, California.
The station is named after Kenneth Hahn, the long-term LA County supervisor for South Central Los Angeles (and father of former Los Angeles Mayor James Hahn) whose support was also instrumental in getting the Blue Line built.
A 63 space "Park and Ride" lot and bicycle racks are currently under construction at the station and are expected to come online in the summer of 2007.
