The Flatbush Avenue Line is a public transit line in Brooklyn, New York City, United States, running along Flatbush Avenue between Downtown Brooklyn and Marine Park. Originally a streetcar line, it is now the B41 bus route, operated by the New York City Transit Authority.
The B41 service begins at Downtown Brooklyn at Cadman Plaza West by the Borough Hall station. This terminus is shared by the B26, B38, B52, and B103 Limited. The bus then runs via Adams Street to Livingston Street, meeting up with the B45, and B67. Buses then run via that street stopping at locations nearest to the stores along that street, until Flatbush Avenue. Here, buses take Flatbush, making no stops until 4th Avenue, where the B45 splits to turn left onto Atlantic Avenue since left turns are not allowed from Flatbush Avenue to Atlantic Avenue. Also at this location is the Barclays Center, the Atlantic Terminal (shopping mall), and the Atlantic Avenue–Barclays Center (New York City Subway) station, as well as the Atlantic Terminal Long Island Railroad station. After this point, the B41 and B67 continue down Flatbush Avenue until the Seventh Avenue (BMT Brighton Line) station, where the B67 splits off and the B69 joins Flatbush until the Grand Army Plaza (IRT Eastern Parkway Line) station. The whole portion from Downtown Brooklyn and Grand Army Plaza is parallel to the IRT Eastern Parkway Line. After Grand Army Plaza, buses make a stop at Eastern Pkwy and run through Prospect Park until Empire Blvd. This portion is parallel to the BMT Brighton Line.
