This article presents a comprehensive catalog of MBTA subway stations located in Boston and its surrounding communities, all managed by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority. It encompasses every active rapid transit, light rail, and bus rapid transit (BRT) station within the MBTA subway network. As of , the network includes 153 stops serviced by the Green, Blue, Red, Orange, and Silver lines. Station facilities vary widely, from minimalistic marked stops on the Green and Silver lines to expansive underground complexes serving as major downtown transfer points. Station names are generally derived from adjacent streets, squares, neighborhoods, or prominent landmarks—examples include Park Street, Central, Chinatown, and Airport.

A new infill station on the Silver Line at Day Square is scheduled to commence operations in late 2024. Additionally, there is a proposed but currently unfunded station planned for the Green Line at .

Stations closed without successors

The following compilation lists stations that have been shut down during the MBTA period (post-1964) without any subsequent rapid transit station taking their place. It generally excludes most former stops along the Green Line A branch and the outer segments of the Green Line E branch, as these were primarily simple stopping points rather than fully developed platforms.

Stations Closed and Subsequently Replaced

This compilation enumerates stations from the MBTA period (post-1964) that were closed but succeeded by alternative rapid transit stops. It encompasses stations reconstructed in proximate locations on altered alignments (such as Forest Hills during the Southwest Corridor project), temporary facilities (like Harvard/Brattle), and those substituted by Silver Line services (for example, Dover). Stations that underwent renovation or rebuilding along the original route are not included.
