Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a vivid chronicle of the development of Grand Boulevard, one of Chicago's most esteemed and architecturally significant parkways. The author's rich descriptions of the boulevard's history, starting from its inception in 1869 up until 1880, showcase the dedication and passion that went into creating this urban oasis. This book examines the motivations of the shrewd investors and wealthy landowners who bought and held property along the boulevard, anticipating its transformation into a grand and exclusive residential area. The author takes an in-depth look into the strategies employed by the Park Board to improve and beautify the area, including the construction of roads, sidewalks, and the planting of trees and foliage. Additionally, the book delves into the topic of taxation and how the annual park tax, levied on all South Side and Hyde Park properties, funds the maintenance and upkeep of Grand Boulevard, ensuring its enduring beauty for generations to come.
