Clark Street is a station on the IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at Clark Street and Henry Street in Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn, it is served by the 2 train at all times, and the 3 train at all times except late nights.

Clark Street is the northernmost Brooklyn station on the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line. It has one island platform and two tracks, accessed from the surface by elevator (the station is not fully ADA-compliant, however). Fare control is at street level, with a mosaic pointing to the Hotel St. George. Due to the deep-bore tunneling used to construct this part of the line, the station's walls are rounded. On the walls of the platforms are mosaics of sailing ships and large name panels reading "Clark Street–Brooklyn Heights." On the floor of the upper mezzanine is a 1987 artwork titled In Celebration of Lazlo by Ray Ring.
