Source-derived summary

The Taipei Metro Haishan station is a station on the Bannan line located in Tucheng District, New Taipei City, Taiwan.

Station layout

The two-level, underground station with an island platform and three exits. It is located close to Mingde Rd. and Yuming Rd.

History

31 May 2006: The station opened as part of a western extension to Yongning.

Construction

The station is 200 meters long and 21 meters side. Initially, the proposed site was too narrow to construct a station. Thus, the neighboring Gongguan drain was changed into an underground drainage box. The station was constructed on top of the drain between National Haishan Industrial Vocational High School and Leli Elementary School.

Public art

Public art for the station is titled "Farm" and is located in the public square outside the station.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Haishan metro station” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Haishan, metro and station provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 19, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q699223. Authority coordinates are 24.985, 121.449. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2006.

Critical limits

Architectural summaries often privilege surviving fabric and can understate demolished phases, contested use or displaced communities. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
