North Shore

Metra UP-N Line

The lakefront communities stretching north from Evanston to Lake Bluff along Lake Michigan, linked to downtown by the Metra Union Pacific/North Line and the CTA Purple Line. This corridor contains Chicago's most historic early-20th-century estate architecture, tree-lined ravines, top-rated Township High School District 113 and New Trier Township, and beach-access village parks. Northwestern University's main campus anchors Evanston, and the Chicago Botanic Garden sits in Glencoe.
