Lake View (Images of America)

Lake View (Images of America)

The Lake View neighborhood, located on Chicagoâ€™s north side, is known today for its celebrities, million-dollar homes, and Wrigley Field, but it was once a very different community. The English language now rules where shopkeepers once risked rebuke if they did not speak German. Expensive restaurants stand where Americaâ€™s celery capital once thrived. Pricey homes sell where a Chicago â€œsausage kingâ€ once committed a grisly murder. This chronicle memorializes boxing and Bishop Bernard Sheil at St. Andrew Parish, meals at Kuhnâ€™s Deli on Lincoln Avenue, the corner stores of the Terra Cotta neighborhood, and the snowstorm of 1967, capturing the spirit that helped Lake View endure troubled times to become one of Chicagoâ€™s most iconic neighborhoods.
