Markham Yards dominates the central landscape of this southern Cook County corridor, illustrating the massive rail infrastructure that defined the region's industrial growth. Between the established streets of Harvey and the open grounds of Markham, the intricate track networks of the Illinois Central and Grand Trunk Western converge. To the west, the Oak Forest Institutions occupy a large campus, while the southern reaches near Chicago Heights show the suburban expansion into former farmland, marked by numerous private grounds like the Olympia Fields Country Club and the Washington Park Race Course.
