History

Morumbi station was built and opened by Estrada de Ferro Sorocabana (along with Jurubatuba branch), on January 25, 1957, and demolished in the 1970s by FEPASA during the remodeling of commuter trains. Because of the lack of funds, its reconstruction project was paralyzed during all the 1980s, being reestablished only in 1994, when the architectural project was hired from architect Luiz Carlos Esteves. In 1992, CPTM launched the project South Dinamization, which wanted to conclude the construction of the remaining stations of the line.{{cite web|url=http://www.estacoesferroviarias.com.br/m/morumbi.htm|title=Morumbi (Original)|publisher=Estações Ferroviárias do Brasil|language=pt|first=Ralph|last=Mennucci Giesbrecht|date=2001|accessdate=May 24, 2019}}

Toponymy

The word "Morumbi" is an indigenous term of Tupi origin that can mean "green fly" (moru: fly, and mbi: green). The ethnologist Eduardo Navarro defends that "Morumbi" has other meanings, as from the tupi maromby, which meaning is "river of the big fishes" (maromba: "big fish"; y: "river"), or marumbi, term of Portuguese language that means "lagoon full of taboas".{{cite book|title=Dicionário de tupi antigo: a língua indígena clássica do Brasil|publisher=Global|location=São Paulo|year=2013|first=E.
