    The few times I rode the red line over the last few years I haven't had any major problems. The…read morepeople do get rowdy & sometimes the station/train is dirty. It's also weird how they at times have a lot of TSA level fake security while a drug dealer is literally cattle calling that he is selling weed 20 feet away from them. Like why not just call the police & have them escorted off the premises? At times I've seen security act just as wild as the passengers. The station itself is nice. It looks like it was recently renovated. It's pretty much a bus depot with buses that go all over the southside coming here. As always KEEP YOUR HEAD ON A SWIVEL & CALL THE POLICE if you need help. There are a ton of shady characters. I've seen people before try to get a CTA employee to help them out with an issue & act surprised when the employee doesn't help them. Just like the "security theatre" that is TSA, CTA isn't law enforcement... they CAN'T enforce laws. They will only assist you by making a report & contacting the actual police.

    Not in a very nice neighborhood. Fights happens all the time unexpectedly. Few robberies, phone…read moretheft happens alot, that includes gang shootings. Watch your back too especially getting on the Red Line or waiting for Pace Suburban Bus or CTA buses. This station smells like smoke, cheap beer. Don't risk on taking the elevator unless if you ever smelled a crackhead urine. I only go there if I gotta transfer different buses or going straight to Downtown Chicago on CTA Red Line. Don't trust anyone. Do not take the taxi. I had seen few fights there. I had gotten few starred. I had beggars asking me for money too. Just say no if any people asked you anything.

    Screw you. Seriously…read more On a night (-30 windchills last night) where the CTA had a chance to be a hero ONCE AGAIN, you blew it. Do you actually look at the schedule, or is it just waste paper for the driver to read when they're bored? I use this route once a week to go to U of C to do my radio show. Public transit to Hyde Park is spotty and unreliable at best, shoddy, shabby and non-existant at worst. Getting there - okay, I ride from Garfield Red line to 57th/University. Easy, and I can also catch the 55 or X55 to get me there. Coming back though, it's a crap shoot as to whether or not there'll actually be a bus waiting for me when I come downstairs to the stop near the Reynolds Club at the appointed time - between 6:55 to 7:05. I'd asked the driver before I left, what time the 7ish bus would be returning to 57th/University. He consulted his schedule, and with a lot of brow furrowing and "uhhhh" and trying to develop an opposed thumb to grasp said schedule, finally determined that it'd be back at 6:55. Bueno. Perfect. Stay warm, my friend, see you then. Sooooo, not wanting to be left freezing (though I was, and seriously felt like Shackelton sans sled dogs) I got to the stop at 6:50. Plenty of time, right? When the bus hadn't shown up by 7:15 I called CTA. Scheduled for 7:20 and 7:35. I was skeptical of this because I know this bus only comes one time an hour. Probably the CTA person on the phone was looking at the wrong schedule, though I enunciated icily (literally) on the phone. Predictably no bus at 7:20 OR 7:35. Another call, and the time was 7:50. By this time, I was practically crazy with the hypothermia, and ran out to the exposed tundra to try for the 55. A U of C student came with me, we'd been chatting about the absent 174 bus. I momentarily pondered asking him if he wanted to make out JUST SO I COULD STAY WARM! PEOPLE! I WAS DESPERATE HERE! I THINK MY DARLING, DELICIOUS BF WOULD EVEN HAVE UNDERSTOOD MY PLIGHT! As I resorted to the sanctuary of home, practically sobbing, and giant glasses of vodka after my ordeal. Anyway. *ahem* At 8:00 the 55 bus showed up, STILL no sign of the 7:50 174 (which would have gotten to 55/University by the time I was waiting there). But anyway, relief, from my guardian angel #55. Seriously, what gives? Do you just freestyle it, and figure the slacker students won't notice? U of C students are not slackers (I am neither a student NOR a slacker). And when the university is on a break - what, do you just not run? Sit on the side of the road and drink? Seriously, people still LIVE in Hyde Park (like Barack Obama, for one!!) that need to get to the campus and nearby. The 174 buses are all shiny and new and pretty clean, but seriously . . . . fix that scheduling glitch, bitches.
