As graduates of fancy-schmancy schools, it’s likely that at some point in your scholastic career, you were made to confront unsettling and unfamiliar truths. Like the fact that Thomas Jefferson owned slaves, or that Jeremy Piven owns toupees. Well, here’s another one for ya’: Los Angeles has a subway. And you’ve never used it. Until now, that is. Because TIPS is taking you to Station, the outdoor terrace lounge at the W Hotel, which sits directly atop the Hollywood & Vine Red Line Metro station. So leave your car at home (yes — seriously) and come join your fellow young alums at this dazzling, new open air addition to the Hollywood strip. Go on: Feel like a New York’er, if only for one night.
