Excerpt from Wikipedia

Irarrázaval is a transfer station between the Line 3 and Line 5 of the Santiago Metro. The station is so named due to its location beneath Avenida Irarrázaval, a main road of the commune of Ñuñoa, which in turn was named after the Chilean lawyer and politician Manuel José Yrarrázaval Larraín.

The station is located underground, between stations Santa Isabel to the north and Ñuble to the south. Vicuña Mackenna Avenue is one block to the west of the station.

Access to Irarrázaval metro station is via Avenida General Bustamante as it intersects with Avenida Irarrázaval, and via the interior of Bustamante Park facing Avenida Irarrázaval. The station also has disability access.

Transfer station

Irarrázaval metro station is a transfer station for the operating Line 3, which runs between stations Huechuraba to the northeast and Larraín to the east of Santiago, including existing stations Universidad de Chile and Plaza Egaña. Construction on Line 3 began in September 2012.

Surrounds

To the south of the station at the intersection with Grecia Avenue is the site of the former Suárez Mujica Palace, a Neoclassic Greco-Roman construction which was destroyed by fire in 2005. Prior to the disaster this was known as "the haunted house".
