About this map

The industrial corridor south of Chicago is defined here by a dense concentration of rail infrastructure and growing manufacturing centers. The planned company town of Pullman sits along the western shore of Calumet Lake, illustrating the era’s intersection of urban planning and industry. To the south and west, the landscape is crisscrossed by an intricate network of railroads, including the Ill. Cent. R. R. and the Chicago Terminal Transfer R. R., which fueled the expansion of settlements like Blue Island, Harvey, and Hammond.
