Cathedral Parkway–110th Street is a local station on the IND Eighth Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at West 110th Street and Frederick Douglass Boulevard at the northwest corner of Central Park, it is served by the C train at all times except nights, when the A train takes over service. The B train provides additional service here on weekdays except nights.

This underground station, opened on September 10, 1932, has four tracks and two side platforms. The platforms have no trim line, but the name tablets read "110TH STREET CATHEDRAL P'KWAY." on white lettering in two lines. They are written on a dark blue background and black border. Dark blue I-beam columns run at regular intervals with alternating ones having the standard black station name plate in white lettering. Toward the southern end of the station, the northbound express track descends below the other three tracks of the Eighth Avenue Line.

At the south end of the station, two staircases from each platform go up to a mezzanine above the tracks that allows a free transfer between directions.

The artwork at the station, installed in 1999, is called Migrations by Christopher Wynter in memory of Athie L. Wynter. It has three different areas of mosaic panels, two on each platform and one on the full-time mezzanine.

Under the 2015–2019 MTA Capital Plan, the station, along with thirty other New York City Subway stations, will undergo a complete overhaul and would be entirely closed for up to 6 months. Updates would include cellular service, Wi-Fi, charging stations, improved signage, and improved station lighting. Construction is expected to start by 2016.

This station's full-time entrance/exit is at the south end, serving 109th Street. From the mezzanine above the tracks, a turnstile bank provides entrance/exit from the system. Outside of fare control, there is a token booth and two staircases to the street. The southbound platform has an additional same-level entrance/exit at the north end, serving 110th Street. It has a part-time bank of two turnstiles and customer assistance booth (two HEET turnstiles provide access at other times).
