Settlers Landing (RTA Rapid Transit station) (Cleveland, Ohio)

 train station, public transport terminus

Settlers Landing Station is one of the stations on the RTA Waterfront Line portion of the Blue and Green Lines in Cleveland, Ohio.

It is the first station beyond the Tower City Station of the Waterfront line, which extended the Green and Blue Lines into The Flats along the west bank of the Cuyahoga River and along the Lake Erie waterfront. The station is adjacent to the Settlers Landing historical site which marks the location where Moses Cleaveland and his surveying team disembarked from the Cuyahoga River to survey the city in 1796.

The station opened on July 10, 1996, when light rail service was extended 2.2 miles from Tower City through The Flats and along the lakefront. This extension was designated the Waterfront Line, although it is actually an extension of the Blue and Green Lines, as trains leaving this station toward Tower City continue along the Blue or Green Line routes to Shaker Heights.
