A 110-year-old embankment wall will come tumbling down later this year as part of a major enhancement to Chicago Transit Authority’s (CTA) $2.1-billion project to modernize the Red and Purple lines.
The Chicago Transit Authority has announced a significant new addition to the $2.1 billion Red and Purple Modernization Phase One Project, which will create more than one mile of new open space beneath Red and Purple Line tracks in the Uptown and Edgewater neighborhoods.
