The eastbound stop is located on /info/taraval" target="_blank">Taraval Street at /info/22nd" target="_blank">22nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue, while westbound trains stop on /info/taraval" target="_blank">Taraval Street at 23rd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue.
History
In June 1908, United Railroads (URR) subsidiary Parkside Transit Company laid a single-track line that ran on 20th /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue from an existing line on H Street (now Lincoln Way) to Wawona Street, then on Wawona one block to 19th /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue. A connecting shuttle line running from 20th /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue on /info/taraval" target="_blank">Taraval Street, 33rd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue, Vicente Street, and 35th /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue to Sloat Boulevard (meeting the 12 Ocean line) was opened by 1910. This trackage, which saw infrequent passenger service, formed a barrier to continued expansion of the city-owned Municipal Railway into the Parkside district. On November 25, 1918, the city and the private URR signed the "Parkside Agreements", which allowed Muni streetcars to use URR trackage on /info/taraval" target="_blank">Taraval Street and on Ocean /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue in exchange for a cash payment and shared maintenance costs.: 74 Muni's L /info/taraval" target="_blank">Taraval line opened to 33rd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue (on rebuilt URR trackage west of 20th /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue) on April 12, 1919.: 75 The URR discontinued their Parkside Shuttle in late 1927.
The L /info/taraval" target="_blank">Taraval formerly had stops spaced every 2 blocks from /info/22nd" target="_blank">22nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue to 32nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue; trains generally stopped at marked poles before the cross street, and passengers crossed travel lanes to board. With the introduction of new LRVs in the 1990s, the stops at /info/22nd" target="_blank">22nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue and 24th /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue were modified to provide access to McCoppin Park and adjacent commercial and residential areas. A small accessible high platform and concrete boarding island were added for westbound passengers west of 23rd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue and for eastbound passengers east of /info/22nd" target="_blank">22nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue. The non-accessible stops at 24th /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue eastbound and /info/22nd" target="_blank">22nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue westbound continued to be used.
In March 2014, Muni released details of the proposed implementation of their Transit Effectiveness Project (later rebranded MuniForward), which included a variety of stop changes for the L /info/taraval" target="_blank">Taraval line. The westbound stop at /info/22nd" target="_blank">22nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue and the eastbound stop at 24th /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue would be discontinued, effectively combining the existing accessible platforms (with extended boarding islands) at /info/22nd" target="_blank">22nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue and 23rd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue into a single stop.
On September 20, 2016, the SFMTA Board approved the L /info/taraval" target="_blank">Taraval Rapid Project. Construction was to occur from 2018 to 2020. The eastbound boarding island at /info/22nd" target="_blank">22nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue would be extended to the east, with the accessible platform moved adjacent to 21st /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue; the westbound boarding island would be extended east across 23rd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue. Early implementation of stop eliminations and other changes, including the end of westbound service to /info/22nd" target="_blank">22nd /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue and eastbound service to 24th /info/avenue" target="_blank">Avenue, occurred on February 25, 2017.
On March 30, 2020, all Muni Metro service was replaced with buses due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Muni Metro rail service returned on August 22, 2020, but was replaced again by buses on August 25. Construction on Segment B of the project, between West Portal and Sunset Boulevard, began in January 2022 and was completed in mid-2024. L /info/taraval" target="_blank">Taraval rail service resumed on September 28, 2024.
