Chicago ''L''.org: Stations - LaSalle/Congress (1178 words) |
 | It is interesting to note that rather than being centered and aligned along the centerline of the mezzanine, the booth in the LaSalle mezzanine is actually angled to the north, perhaps arranged to serve heavy traffic that was expected from LaSalle Street Station to the north. |
| Though much of the structural work of the Dearborn Subway was concurrent with that of State Street's (which was begun in 1938 and opened in 1943), construction on the Dearborn line was suspended in 1941 due to wartime materials shortages. |
| LaSalle was the end of the line until 1958 when the connecting Congress Line was completed, so trains turned through the diamond crossover to make the trip back to Logan Square. |
