The original 6 Street W station, located between 6 Street & 5 Street SW opened on May 25, 1981, as part of Calgary's original LRT line from 8 Street W to Anderson. As part of Calgary's 7 Avenue Refurbishment project, On April 7, 2008, the station was closed and demolished and the new station rebuilt in its place. The new station opened on March 27, 2009, just under one year after the original station closed down.

The original 7 Street W station was located between 7 Street & 8 Street SW (adjacent to the Sandman Hotel) and opened on May 25, 1981, as part of Calgary's original LRT line from 8 Street W to Anderson. On February 27, 2009, the new 7 Street W station opened one block East (between 6 Street & 7 Street SW) and the old platform was immediately closed and demolished shortly afterwards.

Like all refurbished 7 Avenue platforms, the entire sidewalk slopes up to the station at both ends and the platform can handle 4-car trains.

In 2008, according to the Calgary Transit Website, the daily weekday ridership remains at an unchanged rate of 12,400 boardings.
