Shaker Square Station is a station on the RTA Blue and Green Lines in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. It is the first station west of the junction of the Blue and Green Lines and thus serves as a transfer point between the two lines.

The station is at street level on the western side of Shaker Square. It marks the dividing point between the line's grade-separated portion and its at-grade portion, with trains running on a grade separated right-of-way west of this station to Tower City and running at-grade along the medians of boulevards east of this station.
