Location

Dodge was a station on the Chicago Transit Authority's Niles Center branch, now known as the Yellow Line. The station was located at Dodge Street and Mulford Street in Evanston, Illinois. Dodge was situated east of Crawford-East Prairie and west of Asbury. Dodge opened on March 28, 1925, and closed on March 27, 1948, upon the closing of the Niles Center branch.

Later proposals

The former Dodge site was later evaluated as one of three possible south Evanston locations for a new Yellow Line station in a regional/city study. In 2012, an Evanston advisory committee recommended Asbury over Dodge for the station location.
