General information

The station logo represents a tree.<ref name="metro"/><ref name="archambault"/> Its name comes from the nearby avenue, which was named in honor of Miguel Ángel de Quevedo, an engineer who founded the nearby Viveros de Coyoacán arboretum and nursery (parts of which are a publicly accessible park and a popular area for recreation). Apparently, this station was initially designed to have a third platform between the other two, but it was never made operational, the design was changed, and today it is used by workers and for access to an electrical substation. The station serves the Colonia Chimalistac, Santa Catarina, and Romero de Terreros districts.<ref name="metro"/> It was opened on 30 August 1983.<ref name="monroy_history">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
