Windsor Park is a South Chicago Branch station rebuilt in 2006 and consists of single island platform for the two track line that can fit 5-6 cars in the median of Exchange Avenue. This platform has exits at both ends. The main, northwestern exit begins from the western crosswalk of 75th Street with a ramp up into a small station house, clad in brick and with a green gabled roof. Inside the station house is a TVM, and Customer Information Phone (with a TYY). This station house has doors out to a canopy that covers about half the platform. There is an additional smaller green canopy structure (with windscreens) near southwestern end of the platform. The southwestern end of the platform leads down some steps to a walkway between the tracks to the grade-crossing of 76th Street.
