Laramie is a station on the Chicago Transit Authority's 'L' system, serving the Green Line and the Austin neighborhood on the West Side. It opened on April 29, 1894, as a terminus of the Lake Street Elevated Railroad. Going eastbound, Laramie is the first station above Lake Street; the line follows an elevated embankment to Harlem/Lake and transitions from an elevated structure to the embankment immediately to the west of the station.

Station Layout[]

The station consists of two tracks and two concrete side platforms. The entrance to the station is adjacent to the eastbound platform, with passengers accessing the westbound platform via a bridge over the tracks. However, there are exit-only staircases on the westbound platform for disembarking passengers.
