Station overview
edit
This station is a five-level, elevated and underground station and has two side platforms, an island platform[6] and six exits. It is located at the intersection of Fuxing South Rd. and Xinyi Rd. Four more exits have been constructed with the opening of Red Line. Red Line trains from Beitou terminate here during non-rush hours.
Construction
editThe Red Line station is 347 m (1,138 ft) long and 25 m (82 ft) wide. Excavation depth is at 25 m (82 ft). It also has a 319 m (1,047 ft) pocket track, four entrances, two accessibility elevators, and three vent shafts.[6] One of the entrances and one of the vent shafts is integrated into a new joint development building. Another entrance and vent shaft is integrated into the existing joint development building on Brown Line.
Public Art
editThe Red Line station has a theme of "The meeting of light and shadow - a dialogue between ground level and underground". A combination of a horizontal passage which links the space and special illumination and lighting design on the escalators strengthens the directionality of the passage space.[6]

北市捷運局指出，目前有7大捷運站名英譯沒有隔音符號，常讓外國人問路鬧烏龍，如大安站「Daan」被誤唸為丹站、景安站「Jingan」變成金幹站等，捷運局擬加撇號「'」或橫線「-」，以利分辨音節。
