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 is provided at this station. A 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. Under the CTA 's current Capital Improvement Plan, the station will once again be rebuilt for handicapped access. The adjacent bus terminal has already been reconfigured. EXTERNAL LINKS |
