Concord station is a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) station in Concord, California. The station is located between the downtown business district to the west and residential neighborhoods to the east. Concord station has a single elevated island platform.

The station opened as the eastern terminus station of the BART system on May 21, 1973. The station remained a terminus until the line was extended to North Concord/Martinez station in December 1995 and to Pittsburg/Bay Point station a year later.[1]

A water feature at the station, installed by Stephen De Staebler in 1971 or 1972, was removed in the 1990s.[3]
