$57 million grant helps city move forward with State-Lake 'L' station rehab
On the heels of the new Washington-Wabash “L” station opening downtown, the city announced this week that it has secured $57 million in federal funding as it inches toward a long-discussed plan to rebuild the Loop’s second-busiest elevated station, at State and Lake streets.
“This project has been talked about for more than a decade, and now we are moving forward on plans to rebuild this station and ensure a modern and reliable transit system for Chicago’s residents,” Mayor Rahm Emanuel was quoted as saying in a statement this week.
