Chicago, IL: 1940's Video

A posting of a 1940's video about Chicago. It has some great scenes of railroads and boats.

The opening scene is a panorama of Michigan Avenue which includes IC facilities in the foreground. Note how dirty some of the buildings were because of coal smoke. Wrigley must have used a lot of labor to keep its terra cotta finish white.
