103rd Street (Rosemoor) is a commuter rail station along Metra Electric's main line in the Rosemoor neighborhood of Chicago.[2] It is located at 103rd Street and Cottage Grove Avenue, and is 13.1 miles (21.1 km) away from the northern terminus at Millennium Station.[3] In Metra's zone-based fare system, 103rd Street (Rosemoor) is in zone 2. As of 2018[update], the station is the 217th busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 36 weekday boardings.[1]
The station shares part of its name with two other stations on the Rock Island District line to the west. The first is on the main line in Washington Heights, and the other is on the Beverly Branch (or "Suburban Line") in the Beverly Hills neighborhood of Chicago to the west. This 103rd Station is the nearest Metra Electric station to Gately Stadium Park, which is used both by high school and Chicago State University athletic teams. Although Metra gives the address as 103rd Street & Cottage Grove Avenue, parking areas are actually located on 103rd Street and Dauphin Avenue.
103rd Street (Rosemoor) station was temporarily closed on November 20, 2023 for reconstruction. The station is planned to have an elevator installed for ADA compliance. Construction is expected to take about seven months.
