The North Triangle Common Station,[3][4] officially designated as the Unified Grand Central Station[5] and North EDSA for the MRT Line 7,[1] commonly known as the Common Station or North Triangle station, is an under-construction[6] rapid transit terminal and transport hub that will connect LRT Line 1, MRT Line 3, and MRT Line 7,[7] and the nearby Metro Manila Subway.[8][9] It is located in Bagong Pag-asa, Quezon City, Philippines, and is named after its location, which is at the corner of EDSA and North Avenue.[10]
The common alignment had been in limbo for years since the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC), now Department of Transportation (DOTr), reviewed the project's technical and financial components.[11] It was in January 2017 that an agreement was reached to build the station. The groundbreaking of the station was held at the North Triangle Transport Terminal in September 2017. The station was initially expected to fully open in January 2021, but repeated delays have set back its opening to January 2025.[12][13]
