Schiller Park Metra

The Village of Schiller Park wanted a train station that could spark the redevelopment of a neighboring blighted commercial district and inspire a community as a whole.  Since its existence, this new Metra station has helped to shape the identity of the community and enhance the character of the surrounding neighborhood.

​

Designed in the Colonial architectural style, we sited the station on the highest portion of the site to give the building prominence, and with minimal landscaping, created a landscaped tableau.  We selected building materials that required very little maintenance by the Village, while being durable for the long-term future, proving that beauty is possible even within a fairly limited budget.
