Lefferts Blvd Shuttle (Late Nights Only)<111 Street-Greenwood Av
111 Street-Greenwood Avenue has standard design for what was originally a BMT Liberty Avenue Line elevated station. There are two-side platforms each with canopies over most of the platforms minus the extreme ends. The station was most recently renovated in 2015, with the Jamaica-bound platform closed from September 8, 2015 through December 13, 2015, and the Manhattan-bound platform from December 28, 2015 through April 4, 2016. This renovation included replacing the original corrugated cream colored windscreens that covered the entire platform, replaced by more modern Green and Cream windscreens, at the extreme ends of the platforms, where windscreens once were, was replaced by full-height fully-mesh platform walls. In addition column signs that said 111 St, were replaced by new ones saying 111 St in a larger font over Greenwood Avenue in a very small font.
The station still has two open exits at either end of the platforms. At the eastern end is the full time exit with the standard small fare control area with one staircase down from each platform and one staircase down to the NE and SE corners of Liberty Avenue and 111th Street with turnstiles and the token booth in a small station house below the tracks.
There is still a formerly part time exit at the other end of the platform, to 109th Street, very recently it has been made completely automated, with the then part time entrance token booth closed in 2003 and made full time with just High Entrance Turnstiles and MVMs. The station house is the same size as the full time one to 80th Street. From here streestairs lead down to the NW corner of Libery Avenue and 109 Street, and another streetstair midblock to the south side of Liberty Avenue between 109 Street and 110 Street.
