<P mce_keep="true">Nice info Mike, but just one question, just where is South Water Street?  Searched a few old maps, so far, and can't find it.</P> <P mce_keep="true">I did enjoy the ads in the City Directory though.  Especially the piano-forte ad; haven't heard it referred to by it's full name since Daniel was a pup.  My home town used to publish a city directory.  If Chicago issued one nowadays with the info present in that old one, it would have to weigh a ton!</P> <DIV>In my quest of 'Where is South Water Street?',,I've uncovered a few, not quite gem quality, items.</DIV> <DIV><A href="http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/su/maps/chi1890/">http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/su/maps/chi1890/</A></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Interesting set of maps.</DIV> <DIV><A href="http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/su/maps/chi1900/">http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/su/maps/chi1900/</A></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>From the above url, a map of the business district showing railroads.  Doesn't seem detailed enough.</DIV> <DIV><A href="http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/su/maps/chi1900/G4104-C6P3-1904-T3-N.html">http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/su/maps/chi1900/G4104-C6P3-1904-T3-N.html</A></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Art</DIV>
