The plans for the southern extension project were restarted as early as 2012 during the Benigno Aquino III administration and was expected to begin construction in 2014, but was delayed due to right of way issues.

On November 15, 2024, Phase 1 of the LRT Line 1 Extension, where the station is part of, was inaugurated by President Bongbong Marcos; the LRMC management announced the start of its commercial operations to be on the following day.

The station is also near the Terminal 1 of Ninoy Aquino International Airport, the Duty Free Philippines Fiestamall store, Parañaque Cathedral, barangay La Huerta, S&R Membership Shopping Parañaque branch, and Gedcor Square Building, whose tenants are mostly forwarding companies.

The station is accessible to passengers who wish to transfer to road PUVs such as jeepneys and UV Express.

Destinations include Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), Manila, Pasay, Parañaque, and Muntinlupa.
