General information
The station logo shows a coconut palm tree.[2] The name comes from the 19th century "Xola" hacienda that existed in the current site of the station.[2] The hacienda housed an enormous specimen of coconut palm tree, of which some still stand on the sidewalk of the nearby Xola Avenue. The station opened on 1 August 1970.[4]

gollark: Interesting.
gollark: Would any of the AI art things actually make it that clean and symmetrical?
gollark: > We are so still at number 1. Is humanity worthy of unlimited power? I’ve heard Larry Page believes the AIs are our children and know more about righteousness than we do. But even early Yudkowsky writings understood this makes no sense, and that superintelligence doesn’t imply supermorality.
gollark: It just says stupid things too.
gollark: That blog post explicitly mentions the orthogonality thing.
