Stevens Group Architects designed the subway level of the station.<ref>[http://www.sgainc.ca/ Stevens Group Architects]. Retrieved on 16 April 2012.</ref> The centre platform is nine metres wide, and the large arched ceiling is meant to evoke the aviation heritage of the area. Light shines through a skylight north of the staircases with a shaft lined with a similar mosaic to that leading to the mezzanine. | Stevens Group Architects designed the subway level of the station.<ref>[http://www.sgainc.ca/ Stevens Group Architects].
