147th Street Sibley Boulevard Metra Station
GFT · Harvey, IL
Overview
The 147th Street / Sibley Boulevard Station transforms a constrained commuter rail facility beneath an active viaduct into an accessible civic gateway for Harvey, Illinois.
A transparent headhouse, new elevator and stair, reconstructed platform, and folded canopy improve the passenger experience. A triangulated metal ceiling with integrated lighting and sculptural GFRC-clad columns create a distinctive architectural identity while improving visibility, safety, accessibility, and connections to Metra, Pace, pedestrians, cyclists, and the surrounding community.
