It was proposed by the City of Tacoma in 2010 and approved by the Sound Transit Board in September 2010.[2] The station was officially named "Commerce Street" by a Sound Transit Board motion passed on July 28, 2011.[3] Construction began in April 2010 and cost approximately $350,000.[4] The station was built with 40-foot (12 m) platforms, approximately half the length of other Tacoma Link stations.[1]

Following the completion of the Orange Line's extension to the Hilltop area in 2022, the station will be renamed to Theater District, replacing the current station at South 9th Street. The name change was requested by the City of Tacoma and members of the community.[5]
