Avenue P is a local station on the IND Culver Line of the New York City Subway. It is served by the F train at all times.

This elevated station, opened on March 16, 1919, has two side platforms and three tracks with the center track not normally used.

From June 7, 2016, to May 1, 2017, the southbound platform at this station was closed for renovations with trains bypassing on the center track. The Manhattan-bound platform will close on May 22 with trains bypassing on the center track. The platform will reopen in early 2018.

The station has a full-time mezzanine at Avenue P and McDonald Avenue. It has six staircases: two to the northeast and southwest corners of that intersection, and two to each platform. There is a station facility constructed inside the mezzanine on the Manhattan-bound side, giving evidence that there was a third staircase that was removed at the southeast corner of McDonald Avenue and Avenue P.
