Bay Terrace is a Staten Island Railway station in the neighborhood of Bay Terrace, Staten Island, New York.

The station opened in the early 1900s, as Whitlock. On December 18, 1912, a public hearing was held by the Public Service Commission, which among other things, was hearing the Staten Island Rapid Transit Company's petition to abandon the Whitlock station and replace it with the Bay Terrace station. The movement of the station was done in anticipation of a change in the center of population in the area. The new station was to be built 1,594 feet to the south of the Whitlock station.

It is located on an embankment at Bay Terrace and South Railroad Avenue on the main line. It has an island platform and exits are located at both ends. The north exit leads to Justin Avenue while the south exit leads to Bay Terrace. Both ends have a street-level underpass, but the one at the south end is pedestrian-only while the north end is for both pedestrians and vehicles. The south end has greenery outside both sides of the underpass. This greenery is maintained by the New York City Parks Department. During a recent renovation, the glass windows and exterior staircases were refurbished at both ends.
