85th Street/Forest Parkway (BMT Nassau St./Jamaica Line)

Previous: 75th Street/Elderts Lane · Next: Woodhaven Boulevard

85th Street/Forest Parkway Station · Opened 6/11/1917

Similar to 75th St., the southern exit to Forest Parkway has been removed leaving the northern exit to 85th Street as the sole means of entry/exit. (The current map omits the Forest Pkwy. name shown on the station signage and just shows the name as 85th Street. Through 1966, this was known solely as Forest Parkway.) The exit at the north end provides a crossunder between directions.
