The intersection of West 95th Street and South Kedzie Avenue. Evergreen Park Illinois. Early January 1988., a photo by Eddie from Chicago on Flickr.

I took this photograph way back in early January of 1988.

During the 1980's and in earlier years, there was nothing like the Christmas holidays in south suburban Evergreen Park Illinois.

For many years in the past, the village of Evergreen Park used to display this tethered hanging lighted Christmas tree, directly above the intersection of West 95th Street and South Kedzie Avenue. It was a very nice and festive decorative touch every year.

Many years have since come and gone, and the buildings at this intersection have since been demolished. A Chase bank branch now occupies this corner, and the hanging lighted Christmas tree is no longer displayed here.

Thanks.
