The station will be located in the confluence between Avenida Pompeia and Rua Venâncio Aires, where it will attend Allianz Parque and Bourbon Shopping Mall, situated between the districts of Barra Funda and Perdizes.^[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] In September 2016, the construction was 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$ 1,575,344,427.58) with the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) for the continuity of the construction. The State Government of São Paulo started negotiations with international companies, including Spanish Acciona^[7] and Chinese China Railway Construction Corporation.^[8] On 4 July 2020, the State Government of São Paulo signed a deal with Spanish company Acciona to conclude the construction of the line and operate it, in a Public Private Partnership, through Linha Universidade dealership.^[9][10]
