DeKalb Avenue is a station on the BMT Canarsie Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of Wyckoff and DeKalb Avenues in Brooklyn, it is served by the L train at all times.
The station has a mezzanine at one end and platform-level exits at the other. The mosaic tile bands are predominantly green and blue, with yellow and tan accents. New mosaic tile in the stairway from the mezzanine to the Manhattan-bound platform was installed in the 2000, featuring a seven-inch entrance motif design with a dull green and blue background.
