Adams Square was an underground streetcar station located at Adams Square in downtown Boston, Massachusetts. An unusual northbound-only station with a unique layout, it served streetcars in the Tremont Street Subway from 1898 to 1963 plus Main Line Elevated trains from 1901 to 1908. It was largely demolished and covered in 1963 during construction of Boston City Hall.
