The station is located at the intersection of Osceola Parkway (CR 522) and Orange Avenue (CR 527), between Florida's Turnpike and Orange Blossom Trail (US 441). It is the northernmost SunRail station in Osceola County.
The station serves an emergency room operated by Orlando Health,[4] as well as the headquarters of Tupperware Brands, which is located approximately 3⁄4 mile (1.2 km) east of the station on US 441. Gatorland is approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) north of the station, also on US 441.

History
[edit]The station was originally named Osceola Parkway during planning.[5] The station was renamed Tupperware after Tupperware Brands, whose headquarters is near the station, donated 10 acres (4.0 ha) of land for the station site.[2] The station opened as part of the Phase 2 South extension on July 30, 2018.[2]
