The new station also has a special feature that makes it unique in Spain with it being the first Metro station decorated with street art, specifically a great 300-square metre mural showing the face of the man it was named after. Street artists Okuda and Rosh333, with the cooperation of architect Antonyo Marest, under the supervision of Madrid Street Art Project, were responsible for creating the impressive work of art, which presides over the forecourt of the new station.
The homonymous station of Cercanías Madrid, built by Adif above the Metro station, was inaugurated on 5 February 2018.[4] It allows connection with lines C-3, C-7 and C-8.
