CHICAGO HEAVY RAIL
Alleyways and Back Yards

For several stations after coming up from the Dearborn Subway and before beginning the long, more modern extension out to O'Hare from Logan Square, the Blue Line right of way is elevated and parallels Milwaukee Ave. through some old and somewhat weary neighborhoods.

This portion of "L" travels on a narrow footprint across streets, along alleys and by the back yards of many dwellings and other buildings.
