Westchester/Veterans is an under construction at-grade light rail station in the Los Angeles County Metro Rail system. It will be located near the intersection of Florence and Hindry Avenues in Inglewood, California. The station will be served by the K Line,[1] and is slated to be completed in November 2022. As of April 2021 the station is expected to serve as the initial southern terminus of the new line until through-routing with the C Line commences.[2]

The station incorporates artwork by the artist Geoff McFetridge.[3] Hindry station was funded and fully incorporated into the project in May 2013 after significant community support.[4]
