On the platforms, sculptural grilles by Charles Daudelin conceal ventilation intakes.

Origin of the name

The station is located on rue Sherbrooke Est at boulevard Langelier, named for Sir François Langelier (1838–1915), who served in a number of high offices in Quebec, including mayor of Quebec City (1882–1890) and Lieutenant-Governor (1911–1915).
