The station is the second busiest in the CTA network, located at a vital junction in the Chicago Loop, and serving six of Chicago\u2019s eight train lines, with further connections to pedestrian and bus routes.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_127919\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-127919\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Opener-6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-127919\" src=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Opener-6-300x175.jpg\" alt=\"Skidmore, Owings &amp; Merrill (SOM) and TranSystems are transforming State\/Lake Station, one of the Chicago\u2019s busiest train stops.

Additional required exits will accommodate increased ridership and improve comfort and safety. Improvements to the station\u2019s structural design will open the intersection below, removing obstructive columns and increasing safety for pedestrians and vehicles. The design also includes street-level lighting upgrades, wider street corners, an improved pedestrian crossing, and an accessible connection to the plaza to the north.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs one of the most visible stations in the CTA network, the design is reflective of both its location and the needs of riders, with a soaring glass canopy, comfortable spaces for passengers, and fully integrated accessible design for riders of all mobility levels,\u201d said Scott Duncan, SOM design partner.<\/p>\n<p>A glass canopy with a bird friendly frit pattern provides shade in the summer and protection from harsh Chicago winds in the winter, while allowing ample daylight into the station. The transparency and lightness of the structure draws on Chicago\u2019s history of structural innovation, from bascule bridges and early skyscrapers, to the John Hancock Center and Willis Tower.<\/p>\n<p>The design is also structurally efficient, minimizing obstructions to provide expanded views of the Chicago Theatre marquee, adjacent historical buildings, and nearby architectural landmarks. Historic materials from the existing station are functionally integrated with other educational elements to provide a connection to the past and the future.<\/p>\n<p>SOM and TranSystems are working closely with CDOT, CTA and the City of Chicago, engaging stakeholders, and consulting with the community through the design process. The team\u2019s local consultant team includes HDR, GSG Consultants, Ardmore Roderick, Garza Karhoff Engineering, Legacy Rail Operations, Rider Levett Bucknall, Milhouse Engineering, site design group, Gannett Fleming, Facet Engineering, American Surveying, and Metro Strategies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Skidmore, Owings &#038; Merrill (SOM) and TranSystems are
