Architectural Treasures on Broadway in Edgewater (Hybrid)

The evolution of Broadway in Edgewater reflected its evolution from a quiet residential street, formerly known as Evanston Avenue, to a booming commercial district known as the North Side Motor Row. It was also where a wide array of beautiful commercial and residential buildings was constructed. Many of these architectural gems are still standing today, such as the opulent Riviera Motors Building. John Holden provides a visual tour of many of the unsung heroes of Chicago's City Beautiful Movement. Many will remember the prominence of this special north side street.
