It resembles other elevated stations along the line: it has wood mezzanines and no windscreens along the platform edges.

From July 2014 to April 2015, as part of a $109 million rebuilding project at five Pelham Line stations,[2] this station, along with Buhre Avenue, was closed for station rehabilitation work.[3][4]
