The 5th Ave el's swing off Flatbush on Hudson was just south of Fulton. There's a building on the SE corner of Fulton and Flatbush that was built when the el was still up configured to clear the 5th Ave el. The 5th Ave el went under the Fulton el. Here's a link that shows the intersection looking SE during the construction of the IRT, the building behind the 5th Ave el is still there, looks alot different now 104 years later.
