Wilson Avenue Station
The BMT Canarsie Line (L train) has a station at Wilson Avenue. Since the BMT and Circumferential
Line would presumably be sharing tracks at this point, Wilson Avenue would also be a stop
for the Circumferential Line. Although the buildings are more commercial to the north,
to the west and south there are some quiet neighborhoods.

Just north of Irving Avenue, there is a siding that branches off
the Bay Ridge Line to the northwest, crossing Cooper Avenue. The
siding is no longer connected to the track, but there are some vestigial
rails poking through the pavement at Cooper Avenue.
