The station is located in the median of the Kennedy Expressway in the Irving Park neighborhood, though it draws its name from its cross street.

[2] The station opened in 1970 as a part of the Kennedy extension of the Milwaukee Elevated from Logan Square to Jefferson Park.

Built as other nearby stations, according to the plans of architects Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, Irving Park is different; it does not pass under the crossing of the Kennedy Expressway and streets but it spans up to Irving Park Road and Pulaski Road.

On February 10, 1998, the Chicago Transit Authority temporarily closed the entrance on Pulaski Road.
