Elevator entrance at Bowdoin Station, the downtown terminal of Boston's MBTA Blue Line. — Bowdoin Station is the western terminus of the MBTA Blue Line, sitting beneath Cambridge Street near the Massachusetts State House. It opened in 1916 as part of the East Boston Tunnel, making it one of the oldest subway stations still in use in the country. Bowdoin operates on limited hours and reduced service compared to other stops, and many Blue Line trains bypass it entirely outside peak periods. The station has only one entrance, at the corner of Bowdoin and Cambridge streets, with no direct connection to other MBTA lines.

Stentofon, a Norwegian company founded in 1946, manufactures intercom and emergency communication systems used widely in transit facilities, parking structures, and other public buildings. A red button and speaker grille allow a driver or pedestrian to reach an attendant or security staff without a phone. A separate label notes the unit is "not for elevator" use, distinguishing it from elevator emergency phones that serve a different call line.
