Bohemian California and Conleys Patch highlight the dense mosaic of neighborhoods that comprise the South and West Sides of Chicago in this mid-2010s survey. The map details the historical industrial and residential corridors along the South Branch Chicago River, where legacy district names like Pilsen, Bridgeport, and Bronzeville intersect with the modern educational campus of City Colleges of Chicago-Kennedy-King Coll. Further north, Film Row and the Claremont Cottages point to specific urban legacies of commerce and specialized housing. The grid is punctuated by historic squares and enclaves, such as Garibaldi Square and Armour Square, illustrating the persistence of early twentieth-century urban planning within the modern metropolitan landscape.
