The station's logo is the logo of the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana campus Iztapalapa, which is close to the station.[2] The station was opened on 20 July 1994.[4] Until September 1996 this station was known as La Purísima, the name of the street where it is located.[2] The previous logo was the silhouette of the Virgin of Guadalupe.[2]

Curiosities

edit

Although the name of the station has changed, it can be appreciated on the platforms the murals depicting La Purísima. That is, as the station was opened with that name, and until being renamed UAM-I, still keeps design iconography and original name.

Notes

edit
  1. 1 2 3 The data here is limited to the most recent ten years to avoid excessive listings; earlier figures can be found in this page's history or on the Mexico City Metro website. To calculate the average daily ridership, the annual total is divided by 365 days (366 in leap years), with decimals omitted from the result. Each station per line is ranked individually, as the system counts transfer stations separately. The percentage change is calculated automatically using the data from the current year and the previous year.
