116th Street is a station on the IRT Lenox Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of 116th Street and Lenox Avenue in Harlem, it is served by the NYCS|2 and NYCS|3 trains at all times.

The station has extensive mosaics featuring Harlem history and famous African-Americans. It was fully renovated as part of the 1998 Lenox Avenue subway reconstruction project. Fare control is at platform level. There is no crossover or crossunder between the two sides. The reconstruction project gave this station all new wall tile and restored the "116" terra cotta wall cartouches.

The artworks here are "Harlem Timeline" (Willie Birch, 1995) and "Minton's Playhouse/Movers and Shakers" (Vincent Smith, 1999).
