If you were injured in a motor vehicle accident or are helping a loved one who was the victim of nursing home abuse, you might not expect Evanston City Hall to be able to provide much assistance. It is nevertheless an invaluable resource for accident victims.
Where Is Evanston City Hall?
Morton City Hall is located on the third floor of 909 Davis Street. If you are traveling north on Sherman Avenue, turn left onto Davis. Take the first right after you have driven under the Davis Station railroad tracks: the station is next to City Hall. If you reach a second set of tracks, you have gone too far.
There is a parking garage onsite.
If you are taking the train, take the Purple Line as far as Davis.
