Long Beach is a LACMTA Green Line station of the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority. It is located in the center median of Century Freeway at the interchange with Long Beach Boulevard in Lynwood, California. It is not necessarily named for the city of Long Beach, California (served by the Blue Line) as Metro Rail usually names most of their stations after the nearest major cross streets; in this case, Long Beach Boulevard does indeed travel down to Long Beach. The original name for this station was Long Beach/I-105 and it may still be used in some places.
