Pico/Chick Hearn is a station on Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority's Metro Blue Line. After emerging from the tunnel from the northern terminus at the 7th St/Metro Center connection with the Red Line, trains run down the center of Flower Street where the station intersects with Pico Boulevard.
The station is named in honor of sportscaster Francis Dayle "Chick" Hearn (1916–2002), longtime play-by-play announcer for the Los Angeles Lakers.
