23rd Street is a local station on the IRT Lexington Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of Park Avenue South and 23rd Street in Manhattan, it is served by the NYCS|6 train (all times) and by the NYCS|4 train (late nights).

There are two side platforms and the two express tracks in the middle. The station has recently been renovated. It has IND-style signs indicating the way to 22nd and 23rd Streets. An ornate fare control grille on the southbound side is actually a piece of artwork entitled "Long Division", by artist Valerie Jaudon, which was installed during the station renovations in 1988. The station features a back-lit "23rd Street/Park Avenue South" sign at the platform level fare control. There is a low tiled wall at the 22nd Street end which is probably a remnant of a closed crossunder.
