Prospect Avenue is a subway station on the BMT Fourth Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at Prospect Avenue and Fourth Avenue in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, it is served by the R at all times except late nights, by the M during rush hours, and by the D and N during late nights only. The station has two side platforms, with no crossunder/crossover.
This station was overhaul in the late 1970s. MTA did fix the station's structure and the overhaul appearance. It replaces the original wall tiles, old signs, and incandescent lighting to the 70's modern look wall tiles, signs and fluorescent lights. It also fixed staircases and platform edges. The blue tiles provide the backdrop to the lettering, in a similar fashion to the tiles at Rector Street in Manhattan.[citation needed]
