Greenpoint Avenue is a station on the IND Crosstown Line of the New York City Subway. It is the northernmost stop in Brooklyn on the line, and is served by the NYCS|G train at all times.

The south entrance of the station leads to Greenpoint Avenue and has a mezzanine and crossover. The north entrance leads to India Avenue and has platform-level fare controls, with no crossovers or crossunders. Directional mosaics "to Brooklyn" and "to L. I. City and Jamaica" are present. The white-on-black station name captions are abbreviated "GREENPT," rather than having the full name spelled out, possibly due to the length of the name "Greenpoint" and the fact that because the tile band is staggered in places, the caption would not have fit. There is no white tile separating the forest green tile band and the captions. The ceiling lowers at about the midpoint of the station platform. A sign in the mezzanine advises of both Hoyt–Schermerhorn Streets and Church Avenue destinations. Vent chambers are present.
