History

This elevated station was originally built by the Brooklyn Elevated Railroad as the first station to be built along the Cypress Hills extension of the Lexington Avenue Elevated line, which was also shared by the Broadway Elevated east of Gates Avenue. The station opened on May 30, 1893.[2] The station has been exclusively for the Jamaica Line since the closure of the Lexington Avenue Line in 1950.

The station was closed for renovations in the mid-2000s. As part of the station renovation project, the stairs were rehabilitated, the floors were renewed, major structural repairs were made, new canopies were installed, the area around the station booth was reconfigured, the platform edge strips were replaced, walls were replaced, and a high-quality public address system was installed.[4] The renovation cost $8.41 million.[5]

The station has two tracks and one island platform.[6] The canopy is located at the west end of the platform and is short and has arched supports.[7]

Exit

The station's only entrance and exit is a station house at the west end of the platform. It has a bank of two turnstiles, token booth,[8] and one staircase going down to an elevated passageway beneath the tracks. Outside of fare control, there are two stairs, one to each western corner of Fulton and Cleveland Streets.[9]
