    Sullivan Square is a station on the MBTA rapid transit Orange Line, and a major bus transfer point, at Sullivan Square, Charlestown, Boston, Massachusetts, USA. It was also a major transfer point on the old Charlestown Elevated, with two streetcar loops (one at elevated level and one at surface level) for free transfers, later converted for trackless trolleys and buses.

    The original elevated station opened on June 10, 1901, and immediately became a major transfer point, with many streetcar lines that had gone downtown truncated to Sullivan. The extension to Everett opened on March 15, 1919, and routes through Everett were truncated at the new terminal. Beginning on March 30, 1963, Everett was closed nights and Sundays, and the truncated routes (now all buses) were extended back to Sullivan Square at those times.

    The Charlestown Elevated last ran on April 4, 1975, and the new Haymarket North Extension opened April 7, along with the new Sullivan Square Station, a bit west of the old one.
