'''Forest Hill Station''' is a [[Muni Metro]] station near the [[Forest Hill, San Francisco, California|Forest Hill]] and [[Laguna Honda, San Francisco, California|Laguna Honda]] neighborhoods in [[San Francisco, California]]. It was originally built as part of the [[Twin Peaks Tunnel]] in [[1916]]-[[1918]], and is the oldest [[Rapid transit|subway]] station west of [[Chicago]]. The original name of the station is '''Laguna Honda Station''', and the lettering on the front façade still says 'Laguna Honda Station · Twin Peaks Tunnel'. The station consists of two [[side platform]]s next to the tracks far below the surface. Forest Hill Station is located deeper underground than any other Muni Metro station; so much so that, unlike other stations, most people use an [[elevator]] to reach the platform at Forest Hill. Unlike all other underground Muni Metro stations, there is no underground concourse mezzanine level directly above the platform level. Instead, the concourse level is in a building on the surface.
Currently, the [[L Taraval]] and [[M Ocean View]] stop at the station both inbound and outbound. The [[K Ingleside]] stops on outbound trips while the [[T Third Street]] stops on inbound ones, as the two lines are interconnected following a service change on [[June 30]] [[2007]].
A short scene in the [[Clint Eastwood]] film ''[[Dirty Harry]]'' (1971) was shot inside of this station.
