This station opened on June 22, 1915, along with the rest of the Sea Beach Line.

Beige (previously blue-green) columns, a few of which being I-beams, run along both platforms for the entire length with every other one having the standard black station name plate with white lettering.

Outside the turnstiles, there is a token booth before doors lead out to Bay Parkway and 66th Street.

Inside fare control, there is a waiting area, crossover, and one staircase to each platform.

[12] The distance between Avenue O and Bay Parkway make the platforms much longer than the standard B Division train length of 600 feet (180 m).
