Location

Spring Garden station is a rapid transit station in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States, serving SEPTA Metro L trains. It is located on Spring Garden Street between 2nd and Front streets in the Northern Liberties neighborhood. It is the westernmost station of the Frankford Elevated section of the line and the last westbound station before trains enter Center City Philadelphia.

Though the station's official address is on North Front Street, it is actually located in the median of the Delaware Expressway (Interstate 95) over Spring Garden Street, just north of the highway's interchange with the Vine Street Expressway (Interstate 676). The station is also served by two SEPTA City Bus routes, the 25 and 43. A oddity is that the trains announce that Route 5 serves here, but it doesn't, it also announces, "At Columbus Boulevard". It's not known why it announces Columbus Boulevard.
