Metra began construction on the new station in 2009 and it opened on April 3, 2011,[1] after originally being scheduled to open in late 2010.[4] It is located east of Guaranteed Rate Field, home of the Chicago White Sox, and also serves the nearby Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago Police Headquarters, and De La Salle Institute.[5]

Currently, it is the second newest station on the Metra system after Romeoville station which opened on February 5, 2018.

The station is also located roughly 200 feet (61 m) from CTA's Sox–35th station on the Red Line, in the median of the Dan Ryan Expressway. It is also located within walking distance of the CTA's 35th–Bronzeville–IIT station on the Green Line.

It is about 3.1 miles (5.0 km) from LaSalle Street Station, the northern terminus of the Rock Island District,[6] and consists of two side platforms with heated shelters that serve two tracks.[7] As of 2018, 35th Street is the 158th busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 245 weekday boardings.[2]

As of 2022, 35th Street is served as a flag stop by 37 trains in each direction on weekdays, by all 16 inbound trains and all 17 outbound trains on Saturdays, and by all 14 trains in each direction on Sundays.
