General information
editThe station logo shows a coconut palm tree.[2] The name comes from the 19th century "Xola" hacienda that existed in the current site of the station.[2] The hacienda housed an enormous specimen of coconut palm tree, of which some still stand on the sidewalk of the nearby Xola Avenue. The station opened on 1 August 1970.[4]
