Beach 90th Street, sometimes referred as Beach 90th Street–Holland, is a station on the New York City Subway's IND Rockaway Line. The station is built on a concrete viaduct. New lights have been installed. There is a crossunder to the tile mezzanine. Canopies are wood and have numerous holes and missing sections. The station has no benches on the platforms. The side wall is metal with wood over the steel on the lower half. The southbound side has an extra exit on the south end, which has been sealed and street stairs removed.

The "Holland" designation refers to Michael Holland, one of the early developers of the area in which the station was located.
