History
_by_Taric_Alani.jpg)
State/Lake station opened on September 22, 1895, as part on the Lake Street Elevated Railroad's extension into the Chicago Loop that later became the north side of the Union Loop.[2] State/Lake is the last station on this section of the Loop to retain many of its original features. The station was used for exterior shots in ABC 7 Chicago news room.
One of a series of videos 'shot on iPhone 6' to feature in a 2015 Apple advertising campaign [3] features the short journey between Randolph/Wabash and State/Lake shot in time lapse.
