Forgotten Chicago Rogers Park Walking Tour
Join Forgotten Chicago for a walking tour of one of Chicago's most dynamic and diverse neighborhoods, Rogers Park. This tour will examine the neighborhood's history as a suburban community, its annexation to the city, and its era as a lakefront resort community. We will take a look at development patterns, densification, overlooked architectural landmarks, and remnants of long-gone forms of transportation including horse stables. Commercial and entertainment districts, transportation history, Rogers Park's only built Shoreline Motel, and much more will be covered on this fascinating all-new tour of Chicago's northernmost community.
