Subject
Chicago River (Ill.)
Wagons
Swing bridges
Description
One of a series of "before" or study photos by Edward H. Bennett preparatory to designing new double-tiered Chicago River quays, north of the central business district of Chicago, this probably dates from the the 1913-1915 period, as established in another image in the group. Possible locations can be examined more closely on p.213 of Frank A. Randall, History of Chicago Buildings, an engraving view looking west from the mouth of the Chicago River (Rand McNally, 1893).
