Saratoga Avenue was a station on the demolished BMT Fulton Street Line. It had 2 tracks and 2 side platforms.[1] It was built on December 3, 1888 and was served by trains of the BMT Fulton Street Line. The next stop to the east was Rockaway Avenue. The next stop to the west was Ralph Avenue. In 1936, the Independent Subway System built their own Fulton Street Subway but unlike the next stops to the west and east, it did not add a subway station to compete with Saratoga Avenue. It closed on May 31, 1940.
