President Street is a station on the IRT Nostrand Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of President Street and Nostrand Avenue in Brooklyn, it is served by the 2 train (all times), and by the 5 train (rush hours).

This is a deep station with two tracks and an island platform. An escalator leads to the mezzanine (which has a crossover), three flights up. The mosaic tiling is limited to a small letter P. An old sign on the escalator advises, "Do Not Rest Umbrellas or Canes on Escalator."
