The Bloomington Central light rail station is on the Hiawatha Line in the Twin Cities region of U.S. state of Minnesota. This is currently the seventeenth stop southbound.

The area surrounding the station was formerly the headquarters of Control Data Corporation. The largest office tower still remains and is now the headquarters of HealthPartners.

Immediately to the east of HealthPartners is The Reflections Condominiums, two 17-story residential towers with over 260 dwelling units between them. The Reflections towers were developed by McGough Development and the remainder of the land is now being redeveloped by same as a transit-oriented development including residential dwellings, a hotel, office, and retail space.

The platform of Bloomington Central Station has the first 17 Fibonacci numbers written in binary using different colored bricks.
