Miami Avenue Station is a Metromover station in downtown Miami, Florida.
This station is one block south of the intersection of Miami Avenue and Flagler Street. It opened to service April 17, 1986 and serves the Downtown Loop only. Unlike some Metromover stations, it is not a free-standing structure, but instead, is built into the surrounding buildings as a "bridge" over Miami Avenue. This is because of the very high density of the area, as there was no place for a separate structure for the station during construction.
