Libertad station (also known as Antonio Arnaiz station or simply Arnaiz station) is an elevated Manila Light Rail Transit (LRT) station situated on Line 1. The station is located in Pasay at the corner of Taft Avenue and Arnaiz Avenue. The station is named after the former Libertad (Spanish for "liberty") Street, which is a junction of both Roxas Boulevard and Taft Avenue in Pasay.
