About this map

Industrial corridors and dense residential blocks define this urban landscape during a period of significant infrastructure expansion. The Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal and the South Branch Chicago River anchor the heavy industrial districts, where the Turning Basin facilitates maritime traffic alongside the Illinois Central Gulf and Indiana Harbor Belt rail lines. This 1963 survey, updated with 1970s aerial data, reveals the massive footprint of the Stevenson Expwy and Dan Ryan Expressway cutting through established neighborhoods.
