It looks like construction is coming along nicely. Have they decided what retail shops are going to be there? Also, is there a completion date?

I'm not sure about the completion date. I was riding the Red towards Evanston ... took For.Ever. It didn't help that I needed the washroom.

I believe that the improvements are supposed to be done by mid-summer.......according to the CTA website system improvement section (it won't let me post the link for some reason).
There was a bunch of 6 week station improvements last year.....and they were all completed on schedule (if I remember correctly). Haven't heard what is going into the storefronts, but I would imagine there will be a quick stop type of store (like a 7-11) and maybe some stuff geared towards college kids.

I don't know the line-up of retail, there ... but I suspect McDonalds will return with a replacement for its store which was taken-down as part of the construction.

There is a McDonald's like two blocks south of there, but who knows?

The McDonalds which was torn-down at the Loyola "el" stop as construction began, was an "express" McDonalds. If it was profitable I suspect McDonalds already negotiated a return to the location. But, with a full-service McDonalds down the street ... maybe, as you suggest, we won't be seeing it at the "el" stop anymore. Fine with me.
