Beautiful platform as far as train platforms go. Great view up and down Damen. Can't lose with the Robey Hotel and beautifully crafted apartment buildings framing it. A little tough to get on during rush hour - sometimes you might have to wait 2-3 trains to be able to nab a spot - but definitely easier than getting on at Division. Takes 30 minutes to get to O'Hare from here.

Incredibly busy during rush hour. Located in Wicker Park which is pretty much Millenial Central, lots of hip restaurants and stores around this area. (If you come here at the right time around 7ish, the entire station smells like burgers!)

Beautiful historically rehabbed station with great views. It has a storage room for bicycles, heat lamps in the shelters and a nifty rear exit on North Ave. Only thing it lacks is an elevator, which is a shame given that it directly serves O'Hare.
