Michigan[2][3] is a proposed rapid transit station for the Red Line as part of the Red Line Extension. The station is planned to open in 2030,[4] In December 2024, the CTA secured $1.9 billion for the $3.6 billion project.[5][6] The station would be constructed adjacent to the Union Pacific Railroad in Chicago's West Pullman neighborhood.
