33rd Street–Rawson Street is a local station on the Flushing Line. It is located over Queens Boulevard on a concrete viaduct. The full time exit is at 33th Street and while the part-time one is at 34th Street. The part-time exit has a crossunder to allow free transfers between opposite directions while the full time one does not, even though it has the layouts that could allow one.
In 1998, the name "Rawson" was removed from the station and subway maps, but was restored in 2004 as part of a historical move.
