Broadway Jct-East New York
Broadway Junction-East New York is the transfer point from the A,C to the J,Z,L. The Fulton Street Subway platforms are relatively simple with two island platforms for the four track line that are quite crowded. The track walls have a light blue trim line with a darker blue border, beneath the trimline Broadway and then East New York were originally written in white on black tile, During the station's 2003 to 2004 renovation these platform walls were replaced by new tile with Broadway and then Junction in the trimline and the East New York name of the station was retired.
The station like most subway-elevated line complexes requires quite a bit of walking for the transfer. The only exits from the subway platforms are single staircases at the very eastern (IND south) ends of each platform. Signs tell passengers to walk down the platform and not to stop and crowd the very front or rear doors of stopping trains. The station is located just beneath the surface, and each short staircase leads up to an area at street level where fare control is inside a building at ground level that is made of brick with a silver IND art deco-style sign that says subway above the 3 entrance doors. Inside this crowded building are turnstiles and a police substation. There is a turn and then a escalator bank that rises up from the ground and to the elevated lines at Broadway-Eastern Parkway. All street access to the station is from a short walkway from the west side Van Sinderen Avenue between Fulton Street and Tuxton Street inside a small block that shared with parkland with the Callahan-Kelly Playground.

The pre-renovation wall tiles at Broadway Jct. They still say Broadway and East NY beneath the stations blue trim.
Looking out from a R32 C train at Broadway Jct, the column signs still say B'way East NY and haven't been replaced during the renovation process to say Broadway Junction in a much smaller font
The platform wall at Broadway Junction (A, C) after Renovation, its still in the original IND scheme except says 'Junction' instead of 'East NY'.

The only station entrance to the Broadway Jct Complex is in a IND style brick building with an IND Subway sign above the doors, there is a walkway up to it from the nearest street
About to enter the station at Broadway Junction and the only three doors from the street into the large complex. There is a nice old fashioned Art-deco subway sign above the entrance that has been restored as well as a police precinct in the station building.

A sign on the Manhattan-bound platform advising passengers to move down the platform since the only staircase to it is at its extreme eastern (railway south) end
A No exit sign along the platform telling passengers the exit is the other way there many of these all on the backs of the signs directing passengers in the right direction for the exit and transfer
One of many signs all pointing the same way for Exit and Transfer to the J Z L, its one of the few left with the Yellow Transfer square text on it, that text is being phased out in favor of just the line's bullets, like the exit/AC sign above.
