1 Street and Centre Street are stops in downtown Calgary on the city's C-Train light rail system. The 1 Street platform is used by westbound trains, and the Centre Street platform is used by eastbound trains. The two platforms are located on the sides of 7 Avenue South, west and east of Centre Street , and are both located inside the free fare zone.

In October 2005, a new four-car platform for the 1 Street Southwest stop was finished. The platform moved to a new location between 1 Street and Centre Street, one block east of its old location. This move coincides with an ongoing project to rebuild all the platforms on 7 Avenue (including the 3 Street Southwest stop) to be able to handle four-car trains.

The Centre Street stop was relocated in May 2000, and was previously one block west of its current location.

The Telus Convention Centre, Glenbow Museum, and the Calgary Tower are located near these station, as are skyscrapers such as the Petro-Canada Centre, Scotia Centre and Bow Valley Square.

The station registered an average of Centre Street 11,200 and 19,000 weekday boardings (for Centre Street and 1 Street SW platforms respectively).Cite web|url=http://www.calgarytransit.com/html/lrt_ridership.html| title= LRT Station Ridership| author= Calgary Transit| authorlink= Calgary Transit| year=2005| accessdate=2007-08-24]
