Canalside station (formerly Auditorium station and Erie Canal Harbor station) is a Buffalo Metro Rail station located in the 100 block of Main Street (just north of Hanover and Scott Streets) next to the South Aud Block of Canalside in the Free Fare Zone, which allows passengers free travel between this station and Fountain Plaza station. Passengers continuing past Fountain Plaza are required to provide proof-of-payment. Unless there are events occurring at KeyBank Center, in which case Special Events station will be utilized, this is the southern terminus of Metro Rail. Since Erie Canal Harbor station serves as a terminal, immediately north is a double crossover. Erie Canal Harbor station is located close to Amtrak's Buffalo–Exchange Street station and the two stations are connected by a lit pathway beneath Interstate 190 with decorative cement and signage.
The station was originally known as Auditorium station when it first opened until September 1, 2003, when it was renamed Erie Canal Harbor station. The station was temporarily closed for construction and rebuilt to modern standards throughout 2023 and 2024, being renamed to Canalside station upon its reopening on July 2, 2024.[2][3]
