The simple-station Calle 19 is part of the TransMilenio mass-transit system of Bogotá, Colombia, opened in the year 2000.

The station is located in the heart of the city, specifically Avenida Caracas between Calles 17 and 19.

In the year 2000, phase one of the TransMilenio system was opened between Portal de la 80 and Tercer Milenio, including this station.

The station gets the name Calle 19 due to its proximity to that street.

Four months after the opening of the TransMilenio, during the national strike of April 9, 2001, the first attacks against the system occurred.
