45th Street is a local station on the BMT Fourth Avenue Line of the New York City Subway, located at 45th Street and Fourth Avenue in Sunset Park, Brooklyn.

This station was overhauled in the late 1970s. The Transit Authority repaired the station's structure and the overall appearance. It replaced the original wall tiles, old signs, and incandescent lighting to the 70's modern look wall tiles, signs and fluorescent lights. They also fixed staircases and platform edges.

The platforms are offset from each other.
