Perkins Street was a light rail stop on the MBTA Green Line "E" Branch, located at the intersection of South Huntington Avenue and Perkins Street near Hyde Square in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. It was closed on December 28, 1985 when service on the "E" Branch past Heath Street was "temporarily" suspended.[1] The route 39 bus, the replacement for the Arborway Line, now stops at the same location.
