Location

The station is located at the intersection of Judah Street with the Sunset Boulevard parkway, which is flanked by 37th Avenue on the west and 36th Avenue on the east. The station has the same layout as Taraval and Sunset: the curb-level inbound platform is located between 37th Avenue and Sunset, with the accessible mini-high platform west of 37th Avenue. Both the curb-level and accessible portions of the outbound platform are located between Sunset and 36th Avenue.

In March 2014, Muni released details of the proposed implementation of their Transit Effectiveness Project (later rebranded MuniForward), which included a variety of stop changes for the N Judah line. Under that plan - which will be implemented as the N Judah Rapid Project - the platforms will be moved to the opposite sides of Sunset Boulevard so that trains can cross through the intersection before stopping.[2]
