Aside from it's location 1 block from a transit station, I actually don't mind this gas station insofar as it crams a lot of pumps on a very small site with none of that wasted dead asphalt space that most gas stations have. Gas stations are an expected part of the urban landscape but they should at least be urban in form... namely, compact, like this one.
The gas stations at Roosevelt/Wabash and LaSalle/Ontario are far, far more offensive in their respective contexts.
