  Chicago ''L''.org: Stations - Pulaski
While a new stairway was built from the island platform down to the street-level station house, an elevated walkway was also built to connect the new island platform with the two side platforms on the old loop.
The old island platform from the 1907 extension (which had last received significant work back in 1973) remained, with its short canopy, covering only the extreme west end from the stairs to about one car length down the platform, and modest amenities.
The platform lights were of a decidedly jury-rigged and temporary appearance (a lot less temporary than they were probably intended to be), using utilitarian, industrial fixtures (not found anywhere else on the system) attached to wooden poles.

There was a station house constructed on the platform, with light-colored exterior walls with three windows on each side (or, at least on the north elevation...) and a peaked roof that continued east of the station house to become the platform canopy.
The station opened with the new island platform in use and access from the street via the auxiliary exit from Kilpatrick Avenue at the east end of the station with a temporary ticket agent's booth for fare control.
The station house is on the platform and the peaked roof continues east of the station house to become the platform canopy.
