History
The present underground Logan Square station replaced an older elevated Logan Square station that opened in 1895. The older Logan Square station was the terminal of the Blue line until in 1970 when it was extended to the Kennedy Expressway to Jefferson Park station and eventually to O'Hare Airport. The Elevated station was demolished when the new station was opened.
