Savin Hill is a rapid transit station on the Ashmont Branch of the MBTA Red Line, located at 215 Savin Hill Avenue adjacent to Sydney Street in Dorchester, Massachusetts. It serves the nearby neighborhood of Savin Hill and adjacent areas in Dorchester.
Before its 2005 renovation, the station contained the most original structure of any station on the Ashmont Branch. The former station was completely razed to make way for the new ADA-compliant station.[2] The #18 route between Andrew and Fields Corner is the station's only bus connection.
