The station has split side platforms, with the westbound platform on the north side of the tracks west of Berry Street, while the eastbound platform is on the south side of the tracks on the east side of the intersection.[2] The westbound platform slightly extends into neighboring Minneapolis.
Construction in this area began in March 2011.[3] The station opened along with the rest of the line in 2014.
