Going Places: Chinatown| Chicago Water Taxi

Chicago Talks, May 22, 2014

The Chinatown water taxi stop is located at Ping Tom Memorial Park at the pagoda.  The water taxi operates on weekends until May 27 when it will have a weekly schedule too. This is a relaxing and inexpensive way to get from Chinatown or the even the RedLine (at Cermak) and downtown. They run on time. You can board with a bike, but note that the Ogilvie station has a steep set of stairs that make it hard to bring a bike or a stroller with you. On the Chinatown side, the boarding is easy.

* Transfer at Ogilvie/Union to Mag MIle or North Avenue Route

Transfer is additional punch on Ten Ride Pass

via Chinatown – See Maps & Schedules | Chicago Water Taxi.
