This elevated station has three tracks and two side platforms. The center track is not used in regular service.

It resembles other elevated stations along the line, with wood mezzanines and no windscreens along the platform edges.

From October 5, 2013 to May 2014, the station was closed for rehabilitation work.

Exits

The station's only exit is a mezzanine beneath the tracks. Outside fare control, stairs lead to the northeast and southwest corners of Westchester Avenue and Castle Hill Avenue.
