35th–Bronzeville–IIT (formerly Tech–35th) is an 'L' station on the CTA's Green Line, located in the Douglas community area. It is situated at 16 E 35th Street, just east of State Street.
History
The station opened on June 6, 1892, along with the rest of the initial segment of the South Side Elevated Railroad.[1] It is the oldest continuously operating station on the Chicago, being the only remaining station from the original opening. In October 1962, the station, then known as "Tech-35th", caught fire. The northbound platform was destroyed, and service between the adjacent Шаблон:Cta and Шаблон:Cta stations was suspended for four days.[2] The station operated using temporary platforms until its renovation in 1965.
Currently, the station serves the historic neighborhood of Bronzeville as well as the Illinois Institute of Technology campus, which is located immediately across State Street from the station. The station also serves Guaranteed Rate Field, though the Red Line station of Шаблон:Cta is closer. In April 2011, a new Metra station opened between the two CTA stations, providing a convenient transfer point for those traveling to and from the suburbs.
Walt Disney worked here as a guard and gate man as a teenager in 1918.[3][4][5]
Layout
The station features a farecard-only entrance at 3400S, on what would normally be 34th Street.
North of this station, the Green Line tracks pass directly over the McCormick Tribune Campus Center. In order to reduce the impact of noise from passing trains on the facility, the tracks are enclosed in a Шаблон:Convert tube made from concrete and stainless steel.[6]
