History
Initial plans for the Lovers Lane station suggested either an at-grade or aerial station, both of which would have an 800-space parking lot and would be located south of an elevated crossing at Lovers Lane. Due to costs, DART chose to remove the parking lot from the plans, which nearly led to the station being rejected by the Dallas City Plan Commission.

As part of DART's Station Art & Design Program, DART installed tile mosaics depicting bois d'arc trees and ten windscreens featuring poems by local poet Robert Trammell. The station opened on January 10, 1997 alongside Mockingbird and Park Lane stations.

At opening, the station was the eastern terminus of a shuttle to Dallas Love Field. The route was eliminated in 2003 in favor of a connection to Downtown Dallas.

In 2008, the city of Dallas established a four-segment tax increment financing district around several DART rail stations. One of the sub-districts consists of land along Greenville Avenue between Lovers Lane and SMU/Mockingbird stations.
