Norwood Avenue (J,Z Z-Skip-Stop)

Norwood Avenue is another typical J train Fulton Street elevated station with a narrow island platform for the two track line. The station is 'Z' skip-stop station with J trains skipping it during peak direction rush hours. The station was rehabilitated in 2007; the station house is at track level, between the tracks on the extreme eastern (northern) end of the station at one of the canopied area that covers maybe two cars. It has three turnstiles that lead down a flight of stairs to a middle level where it splits leading to staircases down to the NE and SE corners of Fulton Street and Norwood Avenue.
