Located at the intersection of Prospect and Westchester Avenues in the Bronx, it is served by the 2 train (all times), and by the 5 train (all times except late nights and rush hours in the peak direction).

There is a windscreen covering the full length of the station and a center canopy over the fare control area on each platform.
