Location
The station is located in southern Bogotá, specifically on Avenida Caracas with Carreras 15 y 16. It serves the Marco Fidel Suárez and Tunjuelito neighborhoods.
History
At the beginning of 2001, the second phase of the Caracas line of the system was opened from Tercer Milenio to the intermediate station Calle 40 Sur.
