Howard CTA Station

December 6, 2007

Howard CTA Station

Howard is a station on the Chicago ‘L’ system, located at 1649 West Howard Street in Chicago, Illinois (directional coordinates 7600 north, 1700 west). It is the northernmost station on the CTA Red Line (and the outlying terminus of the North Side Main Line), and also has connections with the Yellow Line and the Purple Line; incidentally, the Yellow Line has one of its two termini here, while the Purple Line does not go south of this station outside of weekday rush hours.
The station is in the Rogers Park neighborhood on the border with Evanston. It was originally opened in 1908 and was rebuilt in 1921. An escalator was added in 1964. A Park and Ride with 634 spaces is provided at this station. The Rogers Park neighborhood, located in the far northeast corner of Chicago, has four El stations (N to S): Howard, Jarvis, Morse, and Loyola.

large maintenance yard and rolling stock storage facility, known as Howard Yard, is just north of the station. Northbound Purple and Yellow Line trains pass through the yard on the way to their respective branches, and Red Line trains travel from the north-bound platform to the south-bound platform via a balloon loop in the yard.

As of 2007 the station is being redeveloped to improve handicapped access and provide an additional entrance from the adjacent bus terminal.
