Stationary: LaSalle/Van Buren could use some paint

tracyswartzcta:

May 22, 2012: My weekly CTA column came out today. Every week, I spotlight a different CTA station, picked at random, in my “Stationary” feature. I write about the amenities I like at a station and those that could use change. Last week, I was at the LaSalle/Van Buren stop and noticed the Loop station, built in the 1800s, could use a paint job. This week I’ll be at the 35th/Archer stop on the Orange Line.

Look who’s on Tumblr—follow our CTA reporter’s new Tumblr blog as she posts lots of CTA tidbits and photos.

We were in the same room as Nick from “New Girl.” Marinate on that for a bit. 
Also, did you know he’s from Evanston and a die-hard Cubs fan? He also digs a particularly awesome bar in Old Town.

Beastie Boys played Lollapalooza in 1994, when it was still a U.S. tour. 

RIP Adam Yauch. 

She gone. As of next week, anyway.
Shall we have a party in Pioneer Court during the dismounting of Marilyn?
