Ditmas Ave is the northern end of the remaining Culver elevated. In 1954 the IND had "re-captured" the culver by building a ramp up from Church Ave to Ditmas. At one time the culver El turned onto 39th to head towards the 5th Ave Brooklyn El. The section of El between Ditmas and 9th Ave was closed in 1974. Evidence of the old El is still there. The side track for the El shuttle is gone, but steel work remains.
