The closest is probably the Evanston Athletic Club. It's off the Davis stop on the purple line.
Here's a website for climbing walls in Illinois:

Lincoln Park Athletic Club is just as close, depending on how north you live in Rogers park - Diversey and Sheffield, right off the brown line.

Ahhh...my old stomping ground...As mentioned you have two close options...both owned by the same company. The Evanston versions is really close (hop on the red line north, transfer to the purple line...a couple of stops and you are right in front of Evanston Athletic Club). The wall there is/was three stories, maybe 20 feet ? wide. Another smaller wall in the basketball court. The Lincoln Park version has a large outdoor wall with all sorts of features. To get to the Lincoln Park location you will probably have to (depending on where you live) catch the red line and transfer to the brown line. Anyway, enjoy!
