Preceding station HKL Following station Itäkeskus towards Kivenlahti Helsinki Metro Northern Branch Kontula towards Mellunmäki

The station was opened on 21 October 1986 and was designed by the architect firm Toivo Karhunen Oy. It is located 1.9 kilometers north of Itäkeskus and 1.4 kilometers south of Kontula.

One of Metropolia's campuses is located in Myllypuro, which is why the idea of changing the station's name from Myllypuro to Metropolia has also been brought up.[4]
