The station is located under Highway 401 at Leslie Street. It is about a kilometre from Leslie TTC station on the Sheppard subway line. It was proposed, both during construction of the Sheppard line and for some years thereafter, that the GO station would be moved to allow a direct connection with the subway, but as of late 2011 nothing had happened. Passengers at the station can connect with buses on the 51 Leslie route with a separate fare.
A walkway extending from the north end of the platform connects pedestrians to the intersection of Esther Shiner Boulevard and Old Leslie Street; a short walk along Old Leslie leads to the upper, automated entrance to the subway station.
This station serves a number of businesses in the area:
- IKEA North York
- North York General Hospital
