I have no idea where in Chicago this El is located, but I do know a fair amount about the L.
Simple. In Chicago, there are 8 city blocks to the mile, and ALL street numbering is north, south, east and west of the corner of State and Madison streets in the Loop. 63rd Street, on the South Side, is 63/8 blocks = just shy of 8 miles south of the central street numbering point. If you wish to verify this, look it up on Google Earth. Word of caution: if you seek to visit the El on 63rd Street, be advised that this area lies east of the Dan Ryan Expressway what I euphamistically term "No-Man's Land," meaning a good place to visit with caution -- or steer clear of entirely.
