Name and pictogram
The station logo represents the front of an ALCO type diesel locomotive.[2][3] Its name comes from the nearby Estación Buenavista (Buenavista railway station) main line railway station, which closed its doors to passenger traffic in 1999,[5] but then reopened for the new Tren Suburbano in 2008.[6] The metro station was opened on 15 December 1999.[7]
General information
In December 1999, the Buenavista metro station was opened as part of the first stretch of Line B, going from Buenavista to Villa de Aragón.[2]
Near Buenavista is the central administrative building of the Cuauhtémoc borough local government,[8] the library Biblioteca Vasconcelos,[9] and on Saturday mornings only the Tianguis Cultural del Chopo, a flea market dedicated to youth culture (mostly music),[10][11] and Forum Buenavista shopping mall.[12]
