A shelter on the eastbound platform, a stucco structure with tile roof, was boarded up around 2010.

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 J Church line. No changes were proposed to the 21st Street stop.[2]
