Longwood Station is a stop on the D branch of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA)'s Green Line. It is located on Chapel Street in Brookline, close to its intersection with Longwood Avenue, Boston and is the most convenient stop for Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Temple Israel.

Note that this station should not be confused with the similarly named Longwood Medical Area station on the E branch of the Green Line. That station is located on Huntington Avenue at the opposite end of the Longwood Medical and Academic Area, a cluster of academic and medical facilities that lie along Longwood Avenue.
