1929 Map of Englewood
USGS Topo · Published 1939About this map
The industrial and rail infrastructure of Chicago's south side dominates this 1926 survey, showcasing the dense network of lines like the Belt Railway of Chicago and Chicago and Alton Railroad that fueled the city's growth. Massive logistics hubs such as the Union Stock Yards, Corwith Yards, and Clearing Yards are mapped in detail, illustrating the intersection of maritime transport along the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal and the older Illinois and Michigan Canal. Residential pockets and social centers like Englewood and Stickney appear alongside a robust system of public parks, including Marquette Park and Douglas Park. The map documents a period where traditional river traffic on the South Branch Chicago River transitioned into the modern sanitary and shipping corridors that defined the era's urban planning and sanitation engineering.
