La Naval Station Great Lakes est un quartier général de commandement pour l'entraînement de la marine des États-Unis, situé à North Chicago dans le Comté de Lake (Illinois).

Il s'agit de l'installation militaire la plus importante de l'État de l'Illinois et le plus grand centre d'entrainement de la Navy. Elle compte quelque 1 153 bâtiments répartis sur 6,59 km². Les 39 bâtiments d'origine, construite entre 1903 et 1927 furent dessinés par Jarvis Hunt.

Elle servit en autre à la formation des pilotes des porte-avions d'eau douce de l'US Navy durant la seconde guerre mondiale.
