This underground station, opened on September 10, 1932,^[1][6] has four tracks and two side platforms. The platforms have no trim line, but the name tablets read "110TH STREET CATHEDRAL P'KWAY." on white lettering in two lines. They are written on a dark blue background and black border. Dark blue I-beam columns run at regular intervals with alternating ones having the standard black station name plate in white lettering. Toward the southern end of the station, the northbound express track descends below the other three tracks of the Eighth Avenue Line.

At the south end of the station, two staircases from each platform go up to a mezzanine above the tracks that allows a free transfer between directions.

The artwork at the station, installed in 1999, is called Migrations by Christopher Wynter in memory of Athie L. Wynter. It has three different areas of mosaic panels, two on each platform and one on the full-time mezzanine.^[7]

Under the 2015–2019 MTA Capital Plan, the station, along with thirty other New York City Subway stations, is undergoing a complete overhaul as part of the Enhanced Station Initiative and will be entirely closed for up to 6 months. Updates include cellular service, Wi-Fi, USB charging stations, interactive service advisories and maps.^[8][9] A request for proposals for the 72nd Street, 86th Street, Cathedral Parkway–110th Street, and 163rd Street–Amsterdam Avenue stations was issued on June 1, 2017,^[10] and the New York City Transit and Bus Committee officially recommended that the MTA Board award the $111 million contract to ECCO III Enterprises in October 2017.^[11] As part of the renovations, the station is closed from April 9, 2018, to mid-September 2018.^[12]

Exits

This station's full-time entrance/exit is at the south end, serving 109th Street. From the mezzanine above the tracks, a turnstile bank provides entrance/exit from the system. Outside of fare control, there is a token booth and two staircases to the street. The southbound platform has an additional same-level entrance/exit at the north end, serving 110th Street. It has a part-time bank of two turnstiles and customer assistance booth (two HEET turnstiles provide access at other times).^[13]

• One stair, NW corner of Frederick Douglass Circle (southbound only; part-time)^[13]


• One stair, NW corner of Central Park West and West 109th Street (both platforms; full-time)^[13]


• One stair, SW corner of Central Park West and West 109th Street (both platforms; full-time)^[13]


• One stair, east side of Central Park West at West 109th Street, within Central Park (both platforms; full-time)^[13]

The northbound platform had an entrance/exit to the northeast corner of Frederick Douglass Circle; this entrance corresponded to the open exit to the northwest corner of Fredrick Douglass Circle on the southbound platform.^[7] Both platforms also had an entrance/exit at the north end to both northern corners of 111th Street and Central Park West, with the northbound platform's entrance/exit leading to the northeastern corner and the southbound platform's entrance/exit leading to the northwestern corner. Both exits have been sealed up with white tiling and used as an employee-only space.^[7]
