About

The structure was completed in 2013 as part of the extension of the U2 to Seestadt. As there was no demand for the station at that time, it remained closed. [2] The station was originally named An den alten Schanzen, before being renamed Im Oberen Hausfeld, and then finally Lina-Loos-Platz, after the area surrounding the station, which in turn is named after Lina Loos, an Austrian actress. [3]
