History

The station opened with the extension of the CTS Rapid Transit to

cul-de-sac
at the eastern end of Valleyview Avenue.

In 2009, groundbreaking occurred for a renovation of the station, which was completed in May 2011. The new station includes a completely rebuilt headhouse built on the site of the former headhouse as well as a replacement entrance on Valleyview Avenue. The former tunnel was replaced with a bridge over the tracks and public art was installed in parts of the station. To make the station accessible compliant, three elevators, one at each entrance, and one connecting the bridge to the platform, were installed. In addition, the station now includes designated overnight parking.[4]
