Observatorio is an under-reconstruction station on Mexico City Metro Line 1.^[2] It is located in the Álvaro Obregón borough of Mexico City, west of the city centre.^[2] When operational it is the western terminus of Line 1.^[2] Before its shutdown for reconstruction, the station had an average ridership of 72,296 passengers per day, making it the eighth busiest station in the network.^[3]

The station will become the terminal station of Line 12.^[4] The station will also connect with Observatorio railway station of the El Insurgente commuter rail system. Since 9 November 2023, part of the Line has remained closed for modernization work on the tunnel and the line's technical equipment.^[5] Observatorio metro station was mostly demolished by December 2023. The station will be reconstructed to facilitate the access between the Line 1, Line 12 and the El Insurgente stations.^[6]
