Longwood (Medical Area is added to the strip maps and train recordings but the station signs have not been changed), there is a Longwood on the 'D' branch as well, consists of two side platforms along the line in its median of Huntington Avenue. The two slightly raised platforms (for ADA compliancy for level boarding with type-8 LRVs) have tactile warning strips, station signs, and run from Longwood Avenue northeast to the middle of the block where there is another crossing. The outbound platform has a single canopied bench, the inbound two.
