The station and the neighborhood that surrounds it were named for theGrand Crossing, an on-grade railway junction constructed in 1853 by mutual agreement between theLake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway (New York Central) and theIllinois Central Railroad in settlement of aright-of-way feud. By 1912, this on-grade crossing was eliminated when the successor line to the LS & MS waselevated. The now abandonedNickel Plate Railroad tracks also crisscrossed the area. Another elevated crossing was constructed for theChicago Skyway in 1958.^[3] As of 2011, these lines are owned byMetra,Canadian National Railway, andNorfolk Southern Railway.
