Logan Square station (CTA Logan Square branch)


Logan Square was an elevated station on the Chicago Transit Authority's 'L' system, serving the Logan Square branch and the Logan Square neighborhood.

History

The elevated station was opened in 1895 as part of an extension of the Metropolitan West Side Elevated line. The older Logan Square station was the terminal of the West-Northwest Route until 1970 when the line was rerouted and extended via the Kennedy Expressway to Jefferson Park. The elevated station was later demolished after a replacement subway station, also called Logan Square, opened.
