The Eastern Parkway station was a station on the demolished BMT Fulton Street Line in Brooklyn, New York City. It had 2 tracks and 1 island platform and was served by trains of the BMT Fulton Street Line.[3] The station was opened on November 18, 1889, one of three other stations along the line to open on that date.[4] The next stop to the east was Pennsylvania Avenue.
