When completed, the station will serve the following destinations: University of the Philippines Diliman, U.P.–Ayala Land TechnoHub, Philippine Coconut Authority (PhilCoa), and the Commission on Human Rights Complex.
The station, unlike the separate Quezon Memorial stations of Lines 7 and 8, will be situated at the same complex with the Line 8 building platforms side-by-side the Line 7 platforms thereby creating a common station.
