"Cardozo" was added to the name just before opening, and refers to the nearby Cardozo High School. "African-American Civil War Memorial" was added in 1999 when the African American Civil War Memorial was completed at U Street and Vermont Ave NW. Service at the station began on May 11, 1991. With this designation, this station has the longest name in the Metro system at 44 characters; the shortest station name is Takoma at only six. Trains originally serviced this station as Yellow Line trains until Green Line service was formally introduced later that year. [1] Yellow Line service resumed in late 2006 as part of an 18-month experiment to extend that line to Fort Totten station during non-rush hours and weekends. On June 10, 2001, Metro Transit Police Officer Marlon C. Morales was killed in the line of duty at this station, while intervening in a fare dispute. The fare is $1.95 but he only wanted to pay the discount fare of $1.60 because he was counting his savings to buy a postage stamp. A plaque exists outside the 13th Street entrance in his honor. [2]
