Clinton (also Clinton/Lake) is a station on the Chicago Transit Authority's 'L' system, serving the Green Line and Pink Line. It opened on October 16, 1909, and was completely rebuilt during the Green Line rehabilitation project in 1996.

History and location[]

Station platform

It is the closest 'L' station to the Ogilvie Transportation Center, whose platforms directly abut Clinton. The stations were connected in 1970 with a passageway, called the "Northwest Passage", linking it to the Chicago and North Western Terminal. The passageway closed in 1990 when the C&NW Terminal was rebuilt as Ogilvie Transportation Center, replaced by a holding track for Metra trains.
