The station was previously going to be located closer to the cemetery, however works were canceled there due to concerns that it would affect the natural beauty and architecture of the surrounding area. It was then moved further north to its present location.

A new railway station (Retiro Norte) is also planned at the site of the underground station, which would create connections with the Mitre Line, San Martín Line and Belgrano Norte Line commuter rail services.[6]

In 2019, the station was renamed Facultad de Derecho-Julieta Lanteri after a public vote held by the city's government.[7]
