Gilman Square is a planned station on the MBTA Green Line "D" Branch in Somerville, Massachusetts, planned to be constructed as part of the Green Line Extension. Gilman Square will consist of one island platform, which will serve the "D" Branch's two tracks.
As of December 2013, the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority (MBTA) indicated that the Gilman Square station is expected to be completed by early 2019, as part of the Phase 3 of the Green Line Extension project. Elsewhere in Somerville, the Ball Square and Lowell Street stations are currently projected to open that year as well. However, funding for this phase has yet to be secured.
