25th & Commercial station is a station on the Orange Line of the San Diego Trolley located in the Grant Hill neighborhood of San Diego, California. The stop is dedicated to Hispanic civil rights leader Cesar Chavez.[6]

History

[edit]

25th & Commercial opened as part of the Euclid Line, the second original line of the San Diego Trolley system, on March 23, 1986. Also later known as the East Line, it operated from 12th & Imperial to Euclid Avenue before being extended in May 1989.[4]

This station was closed from May 16 until August 2012 as part of the Trolley Renewal Project, during which a temporary stop was erected just to the west, between 22nd and 24th Streets, to serve the area.[5]

Station layout
