15th Street is a rapid transit station on the SEPTA Market–Frankford Line and all routes of the Subway–Surface trolley lines in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. A free interchange is available between all of the rapid transit lines here, including the Broad Street Line at City Hall, which is connected to 15th Street by an underground passage. The station is the last station of the Market–Frankford Line heading towards 69th Street Terminal to be located in Center City, the next station is on the western banks of the Schuylkill River at 30th Street.

The station is attached by an underground walkway to SEPTA Regional Rail's Suburban Station, the Broad Street Line's Walnut–Locust Station, and the PATCO Speedline's 12–13th & Locust Station and 15–16th & Locust Station. However, no free interchange is available to any of these stations. Riders to the station will find themselves in the very heart of Center City. Philadelphia City Hall lies across the street from the station, and such attractions as Love Park, the Penn Center area, and, upon its completion, the Comcast Center are within immediate walking distance.

The Subway–Surface Lines stop at two individual stations within this complex. Inbound trolleys stop at 15th Street and outbound trolleys at Dilworth Plaza across the Market–Frankford Line platforms.
