There is a passenger pick-up and drop-off area on the temporary terminal's south side.

[1][4] Warden station was opened in 1968 in what was then the Borough of Scarborough, and served as the eastern terminus for Line 2 Bloor–Danforth for 12 years until the extension to Kennedy was completed in 1980.

When the zones were abolished, the layout was reconfigured to bring the buses inside the station's fare-paid area; one collector booth, left isolated inside the fare-paid zone, became an information booth.

Designed by Strasman Architects to meet accessibility standards,[5] the new two-level terminal will have 12 street-level bus bays, two elevators, two escalators and space for retail outlets.

[11] In October 2021, the city announced that agreement had been reached with Tridel to build 600 residential units and a child care centre on the north parking lot.

There is a crossover west of the station from when it was Line 2's eastern terminus which is still used occasionally to short turn trains.

It is near much vacant industrial land (including the former site of Centennial College and Warden Woods Mall/Power Centre) where major redevelopment is expected over the coming years, including numerous new housing developments on the former Power Centre property.
