18th Avenue is a local station on the BMT Sea Beach Line of the New York City Subway, located in Brooklyn at the intersection of 18th Avenue and 64th Street.

The station walls and canopies are concrete, with exits to 17th and 18th Avenues. Both exits have a crossover to the stucco and tile station house. The mezzanine at the part-time 17th Avenue entrance was renovated with new walls and tile. However, in a patch job, the south exit is via switchback stairs to an intermediate level to a metal mezzanine before entering the permanent mezzanine with a crossover. The sides of the windscreen reveals lines where the stairs used to be located and a view of the reduced in-size stationhouse.
