Tappan Street station is a light rail station on the MBTA Green Line C branch, located in the median of Beacon Street east of Tappan Street in Brookline, Massachusetts. The station consists of two side platforms which serve the C branch's two tracks. Tappan Street has no bus connections and is not accessible.

Track work in 2018–19, which included replacement of platform edges at several stops, triggered requirements for accessibility modifications at those stops.^[2] Design work for Tappan Street and seven other C Branch stations was 15% complete by December 2022.^[3] As of November 2023^[update], construction is expected to take place from mid-2025 to spring 2026.^[4] Designs shown in February 2024 called for the Tappan Street platforms to be widened and rebuilt at their current locations.^[5]
