Northern Boulevard is a local station on the IND Queens Boulevard Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of Northern Boulevard and Broadway, it is served by the E train during late night hours, M weekdays, and R at all times except late nights.

The station's exits are at the western end by Northern Boulevard and Broadway. Fare controls are at platform level and there are no crossovers or crossunders. The booth on the southbound side is full time. Each fare control area has one street stair. There are closed exits at the eastern end on both sides.

The IND "56th Street" direction tile and arrow are left intact on both platforms under the "Northern Blvd" tablet. There are heavy columns across one part of the station, where the New York Connecting Railroad to the Hell Gate Bridge crosses over. There is an older style wooden token booth in the mezzanine of the uptown entrance.

In the western half of this station, the express tracks go underneath the local tracks to run along Northern Boulevard. A short distance east of here, the express tracks rise to the same level as the local tracks. To the south (geographical west) of this station, there is a single crossover connecting the two tracks.

There is an emergency exit at the western end of the Forest Hills-bound platform at this station, which leads to the D3 and D4 (express) tracks below.
