Pleasant Street station (MBTA)
Pleasant Street is an aboveground at-grade station on the Green Line B branch of the MBTA subway system in Boston, Massachusetts. It is located in the median of Commonwealth Avenue, on the western side of its intersection with Harry Agganis Way and Pleasant Street. It serves the western end of the John Hancock Student Village at Boston University.
Pleasant Street was also served by the A branch until its 1969 discontinuance.Stop consolidation
In 2014, the MBTA began planning consolidate four stops - Boston University West, St. Paul Street, Pleasant Street, and Babcock Street - located near Boston University's West Campus. The four stops, which are not accessible, will be turned into two fully accessible stops as part of a reconfiguration of Commonwealth Avenue between the Boston University Bridge and Packard's Corner. Pleasant Street and Babcock Street stations will be consolidated into one station in the block between the two streets.
Work was delayed by the need to complete other roadwork on Commonwealth Avenue. The MBTA awarded a $17.8 million construction contract on March 23, 2020. Construction will last from fall 2020 to fall 2021, with night and weekend bustitution for 32 weeks.
