The World Trade Center station is a transportation station in Boston, Massachusetts, on the MBTA's Silver Line. The station is located between Boston's World Trade Center and Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, 42°20.97′N, 71°2.5274′W.

The station is fully accessible (see MBTA accessibility) and offers connections between Silver Line routes. It is across the street from Commonwealth Pier and a seasonal ferry to Provincetown, Massachusetts.

The station was designed by G plus G Architects. Its mezzanine level is intended to represent an underwater environment, with blue lighting, an undulating ceiling and sandy, mica-flecked stone tiles. Lenticular art designed by Marybeth Mungovan and Jason Asselin is installed on the lobby level of the station.
