32nd & Commercial station is a station on the Orange Line of the San Diego Trolley located in the Stockton neighborhood of San Diego, California. The stop is located in an area where the light rail temporarily breaks from its street-level tracks and runs on a separate right-of-way around the Mt. Hope and Greenwood Cemeteries.

History

[edit]

32nd & 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.[3]

This station was renovated from late July[5] until December 2012[4] as part of the Trolley Renewal Project, although the station remained open during construction.
