Top 10 locations that need to be served by rapid transit.

1. HYDE PARK! - The most vibrant dense neighborhood not served by rapid transit, and don't say the express bus counts because its a bus.
2. 26th Street/Little Village - Its amazing how isolated this ultra-vibrant community is. It could also serve
3. Navy Pier/Streeterville - The Michigan Avenue area could use one more line cutting through it.
4. Devon St/Little Bombay - If they could find a way to extend the Brown Line North, this would be great.
5. South Shore - If they built a Hyde Park branch, it should naturally traverse this neighborhood also.
6. McCormick Place/South Loop - Its crazy how there's this huge gap between Roosevelt and 35th on the Green Line
7. 79th/Cottage Grove - A vibrant commercial area, probably one of the most vibrant in the South Side.
8. Division St/Humboldt Park - There used to be a line that ran close by this neighborhood.
9. Halsted/35th in Bridgeport - The Orange Line is kind of nearby, but it doesn't do it justice.
10. The 100's - Chicago ends at 130th st and the Red Line only goes to 95th.
11. Milwaukee - Hey, why not! It could stop in Great America also.>
