New York City Subway station in the Bronx
In 1951, the MTA proposed building a transfer from the IRT Pelham Line to the IND Second Avenue Line at Brook Avenue, though that was never built. Instead, both platforms were extended at either ends in the 1960s to accommodate the current standard length of an IRT train The extensions are noticeable as they are narrower than the rest of the platforms and have no columns. The extensions result in the platforms being slightly offset. In 1981, the MTA listed the station among the 69 most deteriorated stations in the subway system. Under the 2015–2019 MTA Capital Plan, the station, along with thirty other New York City Subway stations, will undergo a complete overhaul and would be entirely closed for up to 6 months. Updates would include cellular service, Wi Fi, charging stations, improved signage, and improved station lighting. However, these renovations are being deferred until the 2020–2024 Capital Program due to a lack of funding. In 2019, the MTA announced that this station would become ADA accessible as part of the agency's 2020–2024 Capital Program.

This underground station has three tracks and two side platforms. The center express track is used by the weekday peak direction <6> service. The 6 local train serves the station at all times. The next stop to the south is Third Avenue–138th Street, while the next stop to the north is Cypress Avenue. Both platforms have their original Dual Contracts mosaic trim line and name tablets. The trim line has a geometric Vickers design of brightly colored diamonds in blue and green, bordered by scarlet red and yellow ochre bands, as well as alternating "B" and concentric diamond plaques at regular intervals. The name tablets read "BROOK AVE." in white seriffed lettering on a blue background and yellow ochre border. Some of the tablets themselves, and sections of the trim line on both sides have been replaced in recent years with historically accurate replicas. Dark yellow I beam columns run along the original portion of the platforms at regular intervals, alternating ones having the standard black name plate with white lettering. There are no crossovers or crossunders to allow free transfers between directions.

Both platforms have one same level fare control area at the center. Each one has a turnstile bank, token booth, and two street stairs. The ones on the Pelham Bay Park bound platform go up to either southern corners of Brook Avenue and East 138th Street while the ones on the Manhattan bound platform go up to either northern corners.
