Civic Center is an elevated metro station on the Red and Gold lines of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) rail system.
It is located in the SoNo district of Atlanta. This station has seen an increase of faregate totals and ridership in the past years, mainly because of the increased interest of highrise building in the area.
Civic Center has a unique layout compared to other stations of the MARTA system. Although the rest of the line in Downtown and Midtown is underground, the station is actually elevated. This is because it lies perpendicular to the trench for the Downtown Connector (), but above the roadway, making it the only metro station in the world located above a highway.
The Station opened on December 4th. 1981 and is Accessible.
