The station is adjacent to the Redlands Santa Fe Railroad Depot, which opened to passenger service in 1910 and is the centerpiece of the historic Redlands Santa Fe Depot District. The building's owner refurbished the structure in anticipation of service.[9] Metrolink will not directly utilize the old building, but new platforms and facilities are to be installed track side.

A four-level parking structure will be north of the depot. 384 parking spaces will be provided. [10]
