Fort Hamilton Parkway is a local station on the BMT Sea Beach Line of the New York City Subway, located in Brooklyn at the intersection of Fort Hamilton Parkway and 62nd Street.

The northbound platform has metal canopies while the southbound platform has concrete walls and roof. Each end has a crossover. The north exit leads to Fort Hamilton Parkway and 62nd Street, and the south to 11th Avenue and 62nd–63rd Streets. The distance between 11th Avenue and Fort Hamilton Parkway makes the platforms much longer than a typical "B" Division train. Station house construction is stucco with tile interior.

At this point, the LIRR Bay Ridge Branch runs alongside north of the line.
