History edit

2005-2006 renovations edit

On December 12, 2006, an elevator was put in service at the 47th station, making the station accessible to people with disabilities. Sixteen days later, on the 28th, escalators began service in the station as well. The glass canopy above the crosswalk outside of 47th station was improved to include images of the Stock Yards 'L' line that operated over a decade before the Red Line.[3]
