Everything about Ozone Park Lefferts Boulevard Ind Fulton Street Line totally explained
Ozone Park–Lefferts Boulevard is an elevated
station on the
IND Fulton Street Line of the
New York City Subway, located at the intersection of Lefferts Boulevard and Liberty Avenue in
Queens. Despite its name, the station isn't actually located in
Ozone Park, but rather in the adjacent neighborhood of
Richmond Hill.
This station is one of the three southern
terminals for the service. Although this is a "south" terminal in
track direction (considering
Eighth Avenue in
Manhattan as north–south), Liberty Avenue underneath runs geographically WSW–ENE, so a train approach the "south" is actually travelling ENE, or more north than south.
The tracks at the geographic north end of the station end in bumper blocks. At the geographic south end of the station, the line splits from two tracks to three. The middle express track isn't currently used in revenue service.
The full-time entrance is at the geographic north end of the station. The exit at the opposite end has HEET access, with a mezzanine that leads to 116th street, with various offices and transit employee facilities. This mezzanine was renovated by an in-house contract in 1999. Tile colors here are light beige with dark green accents, installed in
1997.
This is one of six stations along Liberty Avenue in Queens that were originally constructed as part of the
BMT's portion of the
Dual Contracts System. The stations from
80th Street–Hudson Street to Ozone Park–Lefferts Boulevard opened on
September 25,
1915 as an extension of the
Fulton Street Elevated Line. By 1948, "Lefferts" and "119" were shown in equal sizes, and by 1959 the name was shown as "119 St–Lefferts". Lefferts Avenue was later renamed Lefferts Boulevard, and the station appears as "Ozone Park–Lefferts Boulevard on the current official map.
