The station was located in northern Bogotá, specifically on Avenida Caracas, between Calles 70A and 72.
In 2000, phase one of the TransMilenio system was opened between Portal de la 80 and Tercer Milenio, including this station.
The station is named Calle 72 due to its proximity to the arterial route of the same name.

It also serves the Quinta Camacho, Porciúncula, La Concepción Norte and San Felipe neighborhoods.
