That's still there pretty much as-is today. Went thru there on our way to Los Angeles, day before Thanksgiving, last fall.....just got waved thru without having to stop for an inspection.

Man, this is a really cool thread! I got a lot of old Chicago shots. I am a collector of 1910 era real photo postcards. I will post some if you guys want.

Here is one near Madison St & Central Ave. in Chicago's Austin Neighborhood circa the teens.

Maple & 31st Street in Berwyn. I live right by this street and it looks absolutely identical to this shot circa 1925.

Adams St. E. of Pulaski circa 1909. My father grew up on this block. It is now the worst neighborhood in the City of Chicago.

18th & Blue Island. Czech Pilsen Neighborhood Chicago circa 1909. This neighborhood is a time capsule and looks almost the same today.

Maxwell St. Chicago circa 1969. If you are REALLY a true Chicagoan (and of course are old enough) then you went to Maxwell St. on Sundays for a deal and a Polish Sausage.

This is part of Chicago's past. Grand Ave. circa August 1966.

Been through there a LOT of times...even stayed over night once (transporting Gary's Camaro to AZ...what a FUN time that was!). They did a double take on the name on the credit card...LOL https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif
