The East Station is situated at a distance of 5 km from the heart of the old city of Lisbon and was designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. The work was completed in 1998 at the time of the World Exhibition held in the Portuguese capital, which was involved in a project aimed at re-qualifying and up-grading the city's structures on a grand scale.
The station constitutes a node for interchanges on various levels between different means of transport: rail, buses, underground and taxis. The entrances on both the east and west sides make the building an important connecting element in the urban fabric, capable of joining together two parts of the city that were previously separated from one another by the railway, and of linking the metropolitan area with the outskirts - Lisbon, Portugal East Station - The East Station is situated at a distance of 5 km from the heart of the old city of Lisbon and was designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava.
