Kashtanova is located in between the Teodora Draizera and Henerala Vatutina stations.

At one point the Kiev City authorities proposed creating the "Vulytsia Kashtanova" station of the Kiev Metro's Livoberezhna Line, although that entire project was scrapped in favor of expanding the existing light rail system.[3]
