It's possible to see this station. If you take the 6 train to the final stop at Brooklyn Bridge and ignore the announcement telling all passengers to get off, after 5 minutes it rolls forward and travels through this station to reach the opposite platform back at Brooklyn Bridge station.
I did this last year when I was in NY and although it was a little scary at first to be trapped on a subway train alone it was magical experience to see the station up close and in such a secret, isolated way. The architecture is superb too, miles apart from the rest of the subway. Some more pictures here if anyone is interested:
