Jarvis is a station on the Chicago Transit Authority's 'L' system, on the Red Line, located at 1523 W. Jarvis Avenue in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois.

The style of the station is typical for the intermediate Red Line stops between Howard and Belmont – a narrow platform in the middle of the tracks, with the Red Line stopping on the inner tracks, and the Purple Line running express on the outside tracks during weekday rush hours.

Under these plans, the station would be replaced by a new auxiliary entrance to Howard at Rogers Avenue.
