Three tracks, two island platforms. At the south end, one can exit to the underpass or go up stairs to the Concourse. Tile colors are lawn green with a darker green border, and there is no name tablet. This station at one time had a full length mezzanine as evidenced by closed center stairs on both platforms and plywood behind grills in the mezzanine. At the north exit, you can see into this dark space, with a handful of bare bulbs illuminating it. There are crew quarters and an active tower at the south end of the southbound platform. There is also an equipment room over the south end of the northbound platform. There is also a short, one-car length platform just north of the southbound platform after a gap of about one or two car lengths.
