State (MBTA Station)
State, well known as State Street, is a subway station of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority. Located in downtown Boston, Massachusetts, State is the transfer point between the Orange Line and the Blue Line.
What became the Blue Line portion of State, opened in 1904, making it the oldest remaining MBTA rapid transit station. (The Tremont Street Subway, opened in 1897, serves only Green Line streetcars.) After an extensive renovation which was completed in 2011, State is fully handicapped accessible.
