Court Square – 23rd Street on the IND Queens Boulevard Line is an underground station with two tracks and two side platforms. It is located along 44th Drive between 21st and 23rd Streets and is the western-most (railroad south) station on the line in Queens. Built as an in-fill station, it opened as 23rd Street – Ely Avenue on August 28, 1939, six years after the first section of the Queens Boulevard Line.
Moving sidewalk

This station has three entrances/exits; the full-time one is at the extreme north end. A single staircase from each platform leads up to a crossover, where on the Manhattan-bound side, one exit-only turnstile and one High Entry/Exit Turnstile leads to a single staircase that goes up to the northeast corner of 44th Drive and 23rd Street. On the Forest Hills-bound side of the crossover, a long passageway connects to the IND Crosstown platform. Built when Citibank opened its office tower at One Court Square, the passageway consists of two sections and in-between them is the full-time fare control area that has a turnstile bank, token booth, and two staircases.

One has two escalators and goes up to south side of 44th Drive inside a Citibank and the other is open weekdays only and leads to the entrance plaza of One Court Square. A set of escalators opposite the street stairs lead to the building's lobby. The main fare control area has a skylight and the passageway has the only moving walkways (horizontal escalators) in the subway system. These were installed in December 2001 when the G began terminating at this station complex on weekdays.
