Dearborn Station, Romanesque Revival train station in South Loop, Chicago, United States.

The three-story railway building features a twelve-story clock tower constructed with pink granite and red pressed brick exterior elements.

Cyrus L. W. Eidlitz designed this terminal in 1885, serving as one of six major intercity train stations in downtown Chicago until 1971.

The Fred Harvey Company operated restaurants inside the station, providing dining services to travelers during the peak railway transportation era.

The National Register of Historic Places building now contains office spaces and retail establishments following its transformation from railway operations.

The station's platforms were protected by an extensive train shed, which workers demolished in 1976 during the area's redevelopment into Dearborn Park.
