The second platform, built above the original, was opened on 17 July 1927 to serve what is now the U8 line. The station's architects were Alfred Grenander and Alfred Fehse. The station was the first on the Berlin network to be fitted with escalators, which connected the two platforms.

It has therefore retained its status as a transport hub, and is served by five bus lines during the day (two of which operate continuously) and four lines at night.
