Girard Station is a SEPTA elevated rapid transit stop in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on the Market-Frankford Line. It is located above the corner of Front Street and Girard Avenue[1] in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the Fishtown neighborhood. It is an "All-Stop" station and the first station to run above Front Street. Access to and from the station is on the northwest and northeast corners of Front & Girard.

Three SEPTA surface routes serve Girard station, most notably Route 15, the historic Girard Avenue Trolley. Bus routes 5 and 25 also connect with Girard station, although the latter can be found three blocks to the east.
