There are two entrances upstairs on both sides of Montrose Ave. For amenities, it has a bike rack and a Pepsi machine. A bench or maybe two, and is rather narrow (though I find that often with CTA stations). There are up escalators only, no elevators. There are transfers to busses and Metra nearby. The only real complaint I have is regarding noise. With the highway on both sides, the loudness is unpleasant. With all this, Montrose gets the job done. It's by no means a 'destination' but is easy to navigate and not unpleasant (except for being in the middle of the Kennedy Expressway).

There's access close by for Metra. Best thing is the convenience. It serves the Blue Line. The station is pretty clean for the most part, and should be, because it was renovated not very long ago and looks modern. Above ground so it has the cleaner air. This is located in the Kennedy Expressway so it gets noisy with all the traffic. Has good things about it. It's close to the Mayfair Metra station. There's usually trains coming pretty often weekdays and even weekends.

There is also an indoor shelter large enough to fit about 50 people - perfect for those below zero Chicago winters. A ticket window is also available inside the shelter. The shelter looks a little 1980s ish and can use some remodeling, but it'll do. There are also seats available inside. Also, there is a cute little bookshelf filled with some books to read, courtesy of the Morton Grove library. Such a cute idea! Lastly, the platforms are spacious enough where people who are waiting for the train can spread out and not feel all cramped. I like this a lot because small platforms can feel a little freaky at times, especially when those speedy express trains zip right by!

"Harlem Avenue" is a LONG road, reaching the north end in Glenview and Extending all the all down…read moreto the southwestern suburbs of Frankfort and Tinley Park. CTA #90 (Harlem) bus doesn't provide the entire Harlem tour, but it provides nice sceneries of Norwood Park/Dunning/Montclare/Galewood neighborhoods that belong to the city of Chicago. Since Harlem, or Route 43, is a far-west end, north-south running road, #90 also passes through Norridge, Harwood Heights, Elmwood Park, Oak Park, and River Forest that are villages bordering the city. #90 southbound begins at the CTA Harlem Blue Line station (O'Hare branch) in Norwood Park. I guess the first major point of interest is the Halrem-Irving Plaza (HIP). This mall anchors retailers such as Kohl's, Carson's and Target. Other standalone shops can also be located in Norridge Commons. At this time, passengers can make connections to CTA #78 (Montrose) or CTA #80 (Irving Park) busses near the shopping mall. Now look at the opposite direction from the mall. "Mr. Beef" has some of the best Italian beef sandwich in the city. "Pasta Fresh," a tiny mom-and-pop shop (cash-only) near the intersections of Grace and Harlem, can give you a taste of authentic Italian home-style cuisine. My recommendation will be their amazing pesto sauce. I not only pour it on pasta, but also "drench" my omelet with a generous amount of it! As far as grocery stores go, "Angelo Caputo's Fresh Markets," on the northwest corner of Harlem and Grand (in Elmwood Park) can help you execute one-stop grocery shopping. Continue our southbound journey and arrive at North Avenue. If you would like another Italian beef sandwich, get it at Johnnie's in Elmwood Park (cash-only). This time you can also order a cup of Italian ice to go with it. We are also at the south-end terminal stop in downtown Oak Park. The bus route will end near the CTA Harlem Green Line station. There are festivals and concert series on Lake St. in Oak Park throughout the year. I'm a city gal, but Oak Park has voted one the best suburbs to live and to raise a family in the U.S. By the way, the green line El takes you to the loop and south-side of Chicago. #90 isn't very rush-hour friendly since frequently drivers utilize Harlem as the alternative instead of using the interstates. Discounting those traffic uncontrollables, I'm quite satisfied with their performance.
