Metra Station - Sox Park

They finally broke ground. The new station will be at 35th and Federal. No more expensive parking for Sox games, jump on for a couple of bucks round trip and ride in comfort. NICE. This also opens up De La Salle as an option for the high school kids.

This is the METRA, not the L.

It also opens up the IIT campus which is right there at the 35th street stop as a great option for post high school graduates.

When will this be open? I can not find anything on the Metra website or an article in the papers.

It opens in about 1 year from now. July 2010.

TO the first commentor, you let your children take the 103rd Street bus to 95th & State and then take the Red Line to the ballpark and let me know how that works out for you. THe Red Line is an option for north side Sox fans, but not us.

This sounds great, considering the horrible traffic one can sit in on the way to/from a Sox game...LOVE IT !!!
