Grozăveşti is a metro station in Bucharest. It is located on the banks of the Dâmboviţa river next to the Politehnica University of Bucharest (it is one of the three metro stations servicing the university), the Regie and Grozăveşti student campuses, the CET Grozăveşti thermal power station, the Carrefour Orhideea shopping centre and the impressive Basarab overpass. It was opened in November 1979 as part of the first line of the Bucharest Metro and is currently servicing the M1.
The station was built employing a two-platform system, with the tracks in the center, and with exits at each end of the station, leading to a higher underground platform used as a vestibule. The station's theme colour is dark green, with walls covered in light and dark green mosaic pieces arranged at random as to not form any patterns.
