The semi-enclosed shelter design stands out for its train depot styling, from the red brick masonry to the standing seam copper roof to the gilded "Valley Falls" sign on top. Plate glass panels fill the space between the bench height walls and the roof. Round, back-lit RIPTA signs hang from the north and south ends of the structure and can be seen when approaching from either direction along Broad Street. The floor plan is an elongated hexagon.
