Colonia Buenavista is a colonia or neighbourhood in the Cuauhtémoc borough located northwest of the historic center of Mexico City. What would become the city's main train terminal, Buenavista Station, stood here 1873–1958, and a new Buenavista Station opened in its place in 1961. Though there is no longer intercity passenger service to or from Mexico City, the station is still the terminus of the Tren Suburbano commuter rail line, in a complex together with a major shopping mall, the Forum Buenavista. The colonia is also home to the offices of the Cuauhtémoc borough and the mega José Vasconcelos Library.
