1921 tracks along river
« on: July 02, 2023, 12:31:29 PM »
From the Forgotten Chicago FB group, a photo of the Wrigley Building being built in 1921.  Tracks on the north side of the river are visible.

Nice catch. I am guessing that the Sun-Times building then later Trump Tower occupied that spot.

Reminder looking at the smoke in the air in the photo that in the old days bad air days were common in the industrial past when homes and industries burned coal.
