History

The station has three entrances: at the traffic light on Avenida Calle 13 with Carrera 27, by the pedestrian bridge located on Avenida NQS with Calle 10, and through the building on the plaza located at the intersection of NQS with Calle 13.

The station is named Ricaurte due to the proximity of the neighborhood with the same name.

It is one of the two stations in the entire system that is part of more than one zone: zones Troncal Calle 13-Américas Américas and Troncal NQS Central NQS Central.
