Gare du Nord became too small around 1854, soon after it was built to deal with the rapid increase in railway traffic.

Queen Victoria's visit became the reason to add to the initial line five more tracks in 1884.

The interior was rebuilt and renovated completely in 1889 and a further extension was built on the eastern side in order to serve the suburban train lines. There were also more expansions up to the 1960s, when finally in 1994, the arrival of Eurostar trains made necessary the reorganization of the tracks.

Nowadays:

Platforms 1 and 2: Service platforms, not open to the public.
Platforms 3 to 6: Terminus of the London Eurostar via the Channel Tunnel.
Platforms 7 and 8: Thalys platforms for Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany.
Platforms 9 to 29: TGV North, Main Line trains, then the Picard TER
Platforms 30 to 40: Suburban station
Platforms 41 to 44 In the basement: RER station

There is also a further construction project to build a connecting hallway between Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est, which is projected to open around the time when the new LGV Est begins serving the station.
