Lake & Chicago

This plan communicates two core station components: the station intersection and the location of platforms within the intersection. Other preliminary design details are provided for additional context but are conceptual and will be finalized throughout detailed design. Existing conditions are shown below for reference.

Proposed Lake & Chicago Station Plan

The proposed westbound platform is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Lake Street and Chicago Avenue. The proposed eastbound platform is located at the southwest corner of the intersection of Lake Street and Chicago Avenue and is proposed to be constructed with a curb bumpout. The westbound platform is not anticipated to result in any changes to on-street parking; however, the eastbound platform would result in the potential removal of 2 to 3 spaces. The next westbound and eastbound stations are located 0.3 miles and 0.5 miles away respectively.

Existing Conditions

No existing bus stops are located at the intersection of Lake Street and Chicago Avenue (existing Route 21 buses stop at Chicago-Lake Transit Center).
