history
The Lima Metro Station started operating on December 1, 1913 , along with the section between Plaza de Mayo and Plaza Miserere . This station also received the usual side platforms and the station furniture was painted light gray. The walls are tiled in white.
In the early 1930s, construction work began on a subway line under Avenida 9 de Julio by the Compañía Hispano-Argentina de Obras Públicas y Finanzas (CHADOPyF), which could be completed in 1934 with the opening of the line. For a long time, there was no direct, underground passage between the Lima and Avenida de Mayo subway stations. In the Juan Domingo Perón government's first five-year plan in 1946 , construction work began on a pedestrian tunnel between the two stations. But only with the nationalization of the entire subway network and the handover to the urban public transport company " Corporación de Transportes de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires " was the crossing north of the tunnel of Line A put into operation on June 1, 1956.
In order to improve the flow of passengers between the two lines, a second, larger tunnel was opened on May 4, 1961, south of the subway tunnel on Line A.
In 1997 the metro station was classified as a national historical monument ( monumento histórico nacional ).
