This contract covered not only the station, but also the railway tunnels between Yau Ma Tei and Whampoa Station, including a ventilation building halfway between Yau Ma Tei and Ho Man Tin.[4]
The new, eight-level railway station, cruciform in plan, was built on the site of the Valley Road Estate, which had been demolished a decade earlier. Built into a hillside, the station is partly underground and partly above-ground. The underground levels were excavated through the drill-and-blast method.[5]

The station is located between Chung Hau Street and Chatham Road North. While the Tuen Ma line platforms were boarded up, they were used as a passageway between the concourse and the Kwun Tong line platforms.
During the peak period, some westbound Kwun Tong line trains terminate at platform 2 and commence at platform 1 past the scissors crossover to a reversing siding. The remaining trains continue to, the next station eastbound as well as the line's western terminus. This arrangement exists due to the limited capacity of the single terminating track at Whampoa, which cannot turnaround all Kwun Tong line trains during the peak period.
Multiple artwork is installed in this station. One of the artworks "Between Nature and the City" has a cat on bottom right corner. According to its creator Alex Heung, the cat is called "Ai Cow", and was owned by a Chinese medicine store in Ho Man Tin. The cat went missing in 2014 and netizens have launched a search campaign on Facebook. Through this cat, Alex highlights the connection and emotion of people, community and environment in his artwork.[6] [7]
