Clinton (also Clinton/Lake)is a station on the Chicago Transit Authority's 'L' system, serving the Green Line and Pink Line. It opened on October 16, 1909. It is the closest 'L' station to the Ogilvie Transportation Center, which is three blocks to the south. The station was renovated in 1970 to add passageway linking it to the Chicago and North Western Terminal (now known as Ogilvie Transportation Center), however, the station was almost completely rebuilt in 1996 and the passageway closed.
