Jefferson Street is a typical 14th Street-Canarsie Line local stop. It has two side platforms each with two exits. The main exit is at the extreme eastern end of the station and leads out to all four corners of the intersection of Jefferson Street and Starr Street. This exit has a small mezzanine level where fare control is and a single staircase down to the eastern end of each platform. The station namesake exit is at the western end of the platforms. For each platform: a couple of on platform High Turnstiles lead out to a wide staircase up to street level. At street level these staircases are enclosed in unusual brick buildings parallel to the sidewalk with a couple of narrow doorless openings leading out to the sidewalks of Wycoff Avenue just east of its intersection with Jefferson Street. The platform walls have the standard name tablets with a blue/green outer boarder and a yellow inside boarder, white text complements it, and blue/dark red is the background of the text. The Trimline has similar boarders but brown is the dominant colors for the decorative mosaic squares inside it.
