The Driggs Avenue station was a station on the demolished section of the BMT Jamaica Line in Brooklyn, New York City.

This station was opened on June 25, 1888, as the terminal of the Broadway elevated. When the line was extended to Broadway Ferry on July 14, 1888, this ceased to be the terminal. Mainline BMT Jamaica Line service began providing direct service to Manhattan via the Williamsburg Bridge after 1908. The station finally closed on July 3, 1916, but the segment of the line remained dormant throughout the 1920s and 1930s before being demolished.

This elevated station had two tracks and two side platforms.
