Station Overview
This three-level, underground station will have an island platform. It will be located beneath Nanjing East rd. to the west of Beining Rd. It is scheduled to open in December 2013 with the opening of the Songshan Line.
Originally, the station was to be named "Taipei Stadium Station". However, the area was renamed to "Taipei City Sports Park", no longer using the original station name. Thus, on July 22, 2011, the Department of Rapid Transit Systems announced that the station would be renamed to Taipei Arena Station, using Taipei Arena to signify the park.

Famous quotes containing the word station:
“With boys you always know where you stand. Right in the path of a hurricane. It’s all there. The fruit flies hovering over their waste can, the hamster trying to escape to cleaner air, the bedrooms decorated in Early Bus Station Restroom.”
—Erma Bombeck (20th century)
