Carrer de Balmes''.
When first built speculatively in 1929, the station was named Mercado as it sits right next to Mercado de Sant Gervasi. The station remained closed until 1953, when it opened as ''Núñez de Arce''. It received its current name in 1980.
The station has twin tracks, with two long side platforms.
