Álvaro Obregón is a future station of the Mexico City Metro in the borough of Álvaro Obregón, Mexico City. It will be an underground station with two side platforms, served by Line 12 (the Golden Line), between Observatorio and Valentín Campa stations. It will serve the colonias of Tolteca and Cristo Rey.[1]
The station will be named after the borough, which in turn was named after the 46th president of Mexico, Álvaro Obregón Salido. The expansion of Line 12 was approved in March 2013 and started in April 2016,[2] and the station was expected to open in December 2023.[3] The station was formerly known as "Olivar del Conde".[4] Like the rest of the line, Álvaro Obregón station will be accessible.[1]
