Neighborhood and destinationsThe city of Monrovia is planning to create a transit-oriented district around near its station. The district, known as the "Station Square Transit Village Mixed Use District", will be designed to feature mixed retail, residential and office uses, with pedestrian amenities and connections. Construction of phase one of the new district started in 2017.[8] Plans are to restore/renovate the historic 1926 Monrovia Santa Fe train station depot at the location, though the actual use of the station is not yet determined.[9][10][11] Vehicle maintenance facilityThe Gold Line Authority and Metro have built a new Maintenance and Operations (M&O) Facility in Monrovia, east of Monrovia station. The {{convert|27|acre|adj=on}} facility will service, clean and store light-rail vehicles for Metro's fleet, with a total storage capacity of 104 vehicles. The facility is located just north of the ROW between California Avenue and Shamrock Avenue. It cost $53 million to build.[12] HistoryThe station reuses the former Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway depot, built 1926 in a Spanish colonial revival-style.[13] The 1926 station replaced a wooden depot built on the site in 1886 by the Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley Railroad used till 1972. Installed in 1887, a mule-drawn railway, a single passenger car, called the Myrtle Avenue Railroad[14] at that time ran from the Monrovia station up Myrtle Ave to downtown Monrovia. On the way back down to the rail station, the mule was loaded onto a flatcar and downhill gravity took the cars back to the station. By the early the mule 1920s the street car system was removed. In 1906 the Pacific Electric rail car arrived in Monrovia. The PE Pasadena and Monrovia line ended in 1951. Santa Fe Middle School near the station is named after the Santa Fe Railway.[15] The Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley Railroad built the first train tracks and station in Monrovia in 1887. The Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley Railroad was founded in 1883, by James F. Crank with the goal of bringing a rail line to San Gabriel Valley from downtown Los Angeles. Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley Railroad was sold on May 20, 1887 into the California Central Railway. In 1889 this was consolidated into Southern California Railway Company. On Jan. 17, 1906 Southern California Railway was sold to the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway and called the Pasadena Subdivision. Amtrak-Santa Fe ran the Southwest Chief and Desert Wind over this line in Monrovia, but relocated the Desert Wind to the Fullerton Line in 1986. The Santa Fe line served the San Gabriel Valley until 1994, when the 1994 Northridge earthquake weakened the bridge in Arcadia. With the completion of the Goldline in Monrovia the 1926 Monrovia train station is slated to be restored.[16][17][18] [19]Santa Fe Depot was used in a number of Hollywood movies through the years. It is used two times in the 1966 movie "The Trouble with Angels", both at the start and the ending in which the girls leave St. Francis Academy.[20] See also
