This station opened on September 19, 2000, as an "infill station"[1] (i.e. it was not an original station when the line opened in 1997). As such, Fenton Parkway is the only infill station on the current Green Line and the third in the entire system, following E Street and America Plaza. It was served by the Blue Line until July 2005, when service between Old Town Transit Center and Mission San Diego (and points eastward) were replaced by the Green Line upon its introduction, in conjunction with the opening of the Mission Valley East Trolley extension.[2]
