Culmer station is a station on the Metrorail rapid transit system just northeast of the Spring Garden neighborhood of Miami, Florida, near the Midtown Interchange. This station is located at the intersection of Northwest 11th Street and Seventh Avenue (US 441), opening to service December 17, 1984.[1] The station is named after Father John Culmer, a local civil rights leader who worked to improve the living conditions of black Miamians.

The station has two tracks served by an island platform, with a parking lot south of the platform and bus bays north of it.
