It appears there are no publicly available traveler reviews or experiences for the Evanston Water Plant Heliport (US-11015) in Evanston, US. This facility is primarily associated with the Evanston Water Treatment Plant, which focuses on providing drinking water to Evanston and surrounding communities. Heliports at such utility locations are typically for operational, emergency, or private use and are not public-facing transportation hubs in the same way commercial airports are.
Therefore, information regarding overall traveler sentiment, terminal facilities, security wait times, customs/immigration, transportation connections, parking, notable strengths, or common complaints from travelers is not available for this specific heliport. The public information available pertains to the Water Treatment Plant itself, including its processes and occasional public tours of the plant.

Not applicable. Research indicates this heliport likely never existed as an operational facility. The listing in some online databases, along with the non-official identifier 'US-11015', appears to be an erroneous data point.
Not applicable. The 'closure' is a result of it being a non-existent or phantom airport entry in third-party databases, not a decommissioning of an active facility.
The site at 42.061699, -87.674004 is the active City of Evanston Water Treatment Plant. It is a secure, operational public utility facility responsible for water purification and distribution from Lake Michigan. There is no helipad or aviation infrastructure present on the grounds or rooftops.
The heliport itself has no historical significance as it does not appear to have ever been operational. The location itself, however, is the City of Evanston Water Treatment Plant (also known as the Evanston Pumping Station). This facility is historically significant as a critical piece of public infrastructure, providing clean drinking water to Evanston and surrounding communities since its construction in the early 20th century. The main pumping station building is noted for its Prairie School-inspired architecture.
There are no plans or prospects for 'reopening' this heliport, as it never existed. There are no known public plans to construct a new heliport at the Evanston Water Plant location.
