The station will be located in the confluence between Avenida Miguel Conejo, Rua Bonifácio Cubas and Travessa da Mona Lisa.[1]

The construction of the station began in 2016, when the opening date was estimated to mid-2020.[2] Later, Governor Geraldo Alckmin promised the opening of the first phase of the line to 2020, time which was discarded due to a year of delay in the financing of the Federal Savings Bank, which would be used for the expropriations. In June 2016, the opening of the line was estimated for 2021,[3] time kept in October 2017, when the resume of the construction was announced for the beginning of 2018.[4][5][6] Currently, the construction is suspended, due to the involvement of the construction companies of the Move São Paulo consortium (Odebrecht, Queiroz Galvão, UTC Participações) in Operation Car Wash, which caused them to not get the financing of R$ 5.5 billions (US$ 1,576,379,454.51) with the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) for the continuity of the construction. The State Government of São Paulo is currently in negotiations with international companies, including Spanish Acciona[7] and Chinese China Railway Construction Corporation.[8]

gollark: Like PotatOS?
gollark: PotatOS is GOOD! Non-PotatOS OSes are NOT GOOD!
gollark: Well, assuming it can be done without hardware meddling.
gollark: If you find a way to reproduce it, I'll include it in potatOS as holoscreen technology.
