I had taken this photograph on My way to work one morning, after leaving My company when a meeting had just ended. We are looking South on North Kilbourn Avenue, looking toward West Lake Street. The Chicago Transit Authority's "Green Line" rapid transit, was originally known as the "Lake Street Elevated" line. This was one of Chicago's very first "L" lines, dating back to the 1880's. It was originally a private franchise called "The Lake Street Elevated Railway" and had used small 0-4-4T Forney type Steam Locomotives and wooden open platform coaches.
