75 Avenue/Queens Blvd is a local stop along the Queens Blvd Line, it has a full length mezzanine that is still open completely (except for a tiny closed fenced off section at its eastern end accessed from a single closed staircase on the Manhattan-bound platform) like most of the rest of the stations along the line. The mezzanine has the split with no free transfers between the different directions set-up. There are staircases to street level at either end, to 75 Road (a single streetstair to the SE corner) or 75 Avenue & Queens Blvd to the NW and SW corners. The entrance from the northwest leads to a little tunnel before the mezzanine beneath the north lanes of Queens Blvd with a Pedestrian Underpass because the station is more situated over the southern lanes than northern. The token booth in the center of the mezzanine in the central corridor outside of fare control between the two banks of turnstiles each for the respected directions, nowhere near the exits to the street which are at either end of the station. The center mezzanine is separated from the areas within fare control by a cheep looking chain link fence like many Queens Blvd local stops have. Towards the ends of the mezzanine near the exits high exit turnstiles provide a closer means of egress from the station. While entering passengers for Manhattan-bound trains only can enter at a High Entrance Turnstile (and use a TVM) here. The color scheme of the station's side platforms is green trim with green borders around the name tablets and the columns painted lime green color. This station also has 75th Ave signs on the beams between the express and local tracks.
