Getting from Chicago Union Station to the Field Museum

Two main options:

Public Transit (~15–20 min)

1. From Union Station, take the Metra Electric Line (toward University Park/Blue Island) to Roosevelt Road station.
2. Walk to the adjacent CTA Red Line Roosevelt station.
3. Board a Red Line train toward 95th/Dan Ryan; ride 2 stops to Roosevelt/Field Museum.
4. Exit east onto Roosevelt Road; the Field Museum is on the left (lake side).

Taxi / Rideshare (Uber/Lyft)

Direct door-to-door. Time and cost depend on traffic; typically 10–15 min, $15–$25.

Public transit is reliable and avoids parking hassles.
