F.H. Paschen is proud to announce that we have been awarded the contract for the State and Lake CTA Station Reconstruction Project in downtown Chicago. This transformative project will replace the more than 100-year-old elevated station with a modern, fully accessible transit hub designed to meet the needs of today’s riders.
Located at one of the most iconic intersections in the city, the new State and Lake station will feature wider platforms, a full-coverage glass canopy, four elevators, two escalators, and scenic public balconies overlooking State Street and the historic Chicago Theatre.
Our scope of work includes:
-
Phased demolition of the existing station
-
Complex foundation work including micropiles, drilled shafts, and excavation
-
Construction of an eight-car platform with a fare collection area, flyover bridge, elevators, and escalators
-
Installation of mechanical, plumbing, electrical, lighting, communication, and fare collection systems
-
Utility relocations, pavement reconstruction, and streetscape improvements
-
Track and signal modifications
-
Renovation of the Lake/Randolph Red Line subway mezzanine and platform to include new elevators
We are honored to partner with the City of Chicago, CDOT, and the CTA on this high-profile project and to contribute to the revitalization and accessibility of the Loop’s transit infrastructure.
