The stop is located in the middle of Eglinton Avenue East on the east side of its intersection with Bermondsey Road and Sloane Avenue. The stop will have a centre platform. Access to the platforms will be via the pedestrian crossing on the east side of the signalized street intersection. East of the stop, between the two mainline tracks, there is a double-ended siding for trains to enter and exit from either direction on either main track.: 1:28–1:35
During the planning stages for Line 5 Eglinton, the stop was given the working name "Bermondsey" after Bermondsey Road on the south side of Eglinton Avenue. On January 14, 2016, the Metrolinx board of directors approved changing the stop name to "Sloane" after Sloane Avenue on the north side.
