South Station
South Station Review
The colonnaded granite structure is the terminal for all Amtrak trains in and out of Boston as well as commuter trains originating from the west and south of the city. Next door on Atlantic Avenue is the terminal for Greyhound, Peter Pan, and other bus lines. Behind the station's grand 1900s facade a major renovation project has created an airy, modern transit center. Thanks to its eateries, coffee bars, newsstand, flower stand, and other shops, waiting for a train here can actually be a pleasant experience.
