The building is to serve as a communication hub and for transport, both aspect are emphasised in the form and architectural details. The pavilion capsule, cut through with a piece of glass openwork on the ground floor, has been suspended, like a modern train car, and extended towards the line of a green roof/terrace that links the exit of the tunnel running under the track subgrade with tram stops and the main bus station on the southern side of Sucha street.

The night station comprises three levels. On the underground level (below the street), there are technical backup facilities and toilets. Level zero is the main hall with ticket offices and a large electronic board displaying train departure times. The most interesting part of the building is the first floor, accessed from Sucha street (via a footpath), which houses a waiting room specifically for use during the night as well as a service point. The entire pavilion is equipped with a state-of-the-art monitoring system and air-conditioning. The individual levels are connected with lifts and stairs. Solar collectors have been installed on the roof to provide energy for heating water for use in the building.

The building façade has been clad with light brown preoxidised copper (Nordic Brown Light™). The horizontal panels are detailed with a standing seam. The light brown colour of the pavilion blends in with the platforms, the other station buildings as well as the surrounding environment. Passengers are given the impression that the new building has been standing there for years, being an integral part of the entire Central Railway Station complex.

The original Central Railway Station building was erected in 1855-1857 as the railway line connecting Wrocław and Poznań was being constructed. It was designed in the neo-Gothic style by Wilhelm Grapow. The railway station was redeveloped several times due to the dynamic growth of the city, this included: a new platform hall, a new passenger service hall and a few impressive auxiliary buildings. Devastated during the siege of 1945, the building was re-commissioned as early as 20 June, but traces of damage were still being removed up to 1949. The 1960s and 1990s saw more extensive redevelopment of the station. In April 2010, comprehensive modernisation of the railway station commenced with the intention to adapt it to contemporary expectations and bring back the splendour of one of the most characteristic structures of Wrocław.
