Madison/Wells served as a Chicago Transit Authority stop on the Loop Elevated within the Chicago Loop, situated at 1 North Wells Street. The station commenced service on October 3, 1897, and remained operational until its closure on January 30, 1994. It was subsequently dismantled to allow for the development of the new Washington/Wells station. Both Madison/Wells and Randolph/Wells stations were consolidated into Washington/Wells, enhancing transit efficiency in the vicinity.
