Skidmore Fountain station is a disused light rail station on the MAX Blue and Red Lines in Portland, Oregon that closed in August 2025. It was the fifth stop eastbound on the Eastside MAX. It was previously also served by the Yellow Line, from 2004 to 2009, until that line's relocation to the Portland Transit Mall.
The station had side platforms that were built into the sidewalk. Located under the west approach of the Burnside Bridge at the intersection of Burnside Street and Southwest 1st Avenue, it previously served the Tom McCall Waterfront Park, the Portland Saturday Market, and Skidmore Fountain before the station’s closure.
