From an engineering standpoint, it's not impossible to build platforms on a slope or on a curve. I saw several stations in NYC recently with a noticeable slope to the platform. But I do agree that the station box will have to extend beneath Clark and onto the CTA's property at the southeast corner even if it doesn't cross the line of 15th.

Why would an Alderman who doesn’t represent Dearborn Park need to appease them?
Also, why would you even need Alderman approval for a station on CTA ROW, especially if you only have a stairwell entrance?
