About this map

The Calumet Sag Channel and the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal dominate the hydrological landscape of this region southwest of Chicago. This 1928 edition illustrates a transition toward recreational and suburban development, evidenced by several specialized sites like the Kiwanis Scout Camp and the Ski and Toboggan Slide near Swallow Cliff. Large-scale institutional and social landmarks are prominent, including Holy Sepulchre Cemetery and several expansive country clubs like Southmoor Country Club and Oak Hill Golf Club.
