Sycamore/Main Street, also known as Tri City, is a station on the Valley Metro Rail line in Mesa, Arizona, USA. The station is located one block east of the intersection of Dobson Road and Main Street, in front of the former Tri City Mall. A large park and ride lot is located adjacent to the station's bus terminal on the north side of Main Street.

Although easily accessible from the Dobson Road exits of both State Route 202 and U.S. Route 60, there currently are no signs directing travelers from the highway to the station. Nor does Valley Metro indicate on its maps that "Sycamore" is one block from the much better-known Dobson Road, one of Mesa's major north-south arterial streets. Sycamore Drive is a minor side street, and terminates one block from the station, at the Union Pacific Railroad tracks.
