History

Construction of the station was uncertain at the time of eBART's approval due to lack of available funds.[4] The station was originally known as Railroad Avenue during planning.[5] The city later chose Pittsburg Civic Center, which BART rejected because of its similarity to Civic Center/UN Plaza station. In January 2015, the city accepted BART's proposal of Pittsburg Center.[6]

Funding for the station was secured in early 2015 and was estimated at $11.9 million (equivalent to $14 million in 2021). Construction commenced on July 27, 2015,[7] and was opened with the rest of the line on May 26, 2018.[4]

As of September 2019^[update], Pittsburg Center was the least-used station on the BART system, with 1,464 daily boardings.[2]
