Going from O'Hare to N Michigan Avenue

Do you recommend driving or using the train/bus?





I need to go early morning for a business meeting.



Going from O'Hare to N Michigan Avenue


If you give us a specific address - we can give detailed directions. The CTA blue line train is your best bet. Visit www.transitchicago.com for details.





Driving downtown is a pain. Parking is very expensive.



Going from O'Hare to N Michigan Avenue


In the vicinity of the Wrigley Building




Take the CTA blue line train to Clark/Lake. From there it%26#39;s a fairly easy walk or you can take a cab for the remaining short distance.




Wonderful!





Thanks!!!




I assume it is a safe area to walk from the Clark/Lake station to the Wrigley Building?





Thanks




From Clark/Lake is about four blocks to where you are going. A relatively short walk -- head north on Clark to Wacker then turn right on Wacker to go to Michigan. Cross the bridge and you are there. It is a pretty nice walk.





For a business meeting though, I would take a cab from O%26#39;Hare. Cabs tend to be cleaner than the Blue Line (not saying much) and also you spend the ride thinking about the meeting rather than about the trip itself.





The cab ride is about $40.00.




Thanks for all the suggestions and help!




Wondering if this route (CTA blue line) will be too crowded early Monday morning. Any personal experiences?





Thanks!




The train may become crowded as you ride toward downtown, but you are getting on at the end/beginning of the line. There will not be other people on the train when you get on.




Sounds great!





Thanks!
