San Joaquín is an elevated metro station on the Line 5 of the Santiago Metro, in Santiago, Chile. It is located close to the San Joaquín Campus of the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile.
Like the rest of the first stations built on a viaduct in Santiago, San Joaquín is being renovated to be capable of berthing 7-car trains.[1] The renovation work is scheduled to be terminated in March 2013.[1][needs update]
