Station Layout
There are additional exits at the extreme ends of each platform which bypass the intermediate level and go straight to the fare control level, the eastern one to Utica Avenue and the western one to Stuyvesant Avenue.
Between this station and Ralph Avenue, there is a fifth track between the express tracks, which could be used for storage or turning trains, although it is not normally used. The storage/layup tracks ends with bumper blocks on both ends, with switches to the express tracks.
Artwork here was made in 1996 by Jimmy James Green and is called Children's Cathedral.

Famous quotes containing the word station:
“With boys you always know where you stand. Right in the path of a hurricane. It’s all there. The fruit flies hovering over their waste can, the hamster trying to escape to cleaner air, the bedrooms decorated in Early Bus Station Restroom.”
—Erma Bombeck (20th century)
