Station overview
The station is a two-level, underground station with an island platform. It has a naturally-lit hall and sunken garden. The naturally-lit hall has two light towers and a light hallway. The sunken garden connects to the hall and has a ring-shaped corridor, pond, cascade and a circular plaza. The station also has an underground parking lot.
An earlier draft for the station's design did not include the waterfall and sunken, ring-shaped corridor design, though it still maintained the sunken plaza within the station lobby.
Construction
The station is 226 m (741 ft) long and 22 m (72 ft) wide. Excavation depth is at 19 m (62 ft). It has six entrances, three elevators for the disabled and two vent shafts. One of the entrances is integrated into a joint development building. The 34-story building is incorporated into Exit D and was completed in December 2010. Due to station construction, old banyan trees originally planted on the sidewalk along Xinyi Road were replanted elsewhere within the park.
Design
The design theme for the station is "Forest Revolution: the City and Park Conversing".
