Oak Park Avenue Metra Train Station
To refresh its image, Tinley Park created a master plan that called for a “Main Street USA” atmosphere. The village hired Legat to kick off the plan with a new train station.
The Oak Park Avenue Station resurfaced Tinley Park’s “Old World charm” and inspired future development. The station quickly became a village landmark and the focal point for community events that attract visitors from the entire region.
