Industrial area, South Chicago

 

View looking southeast from South Chicago Avenue from just north of the intersection with South Baltimore Avenue, towards cargo handling and storage facilities along the Calumet River. Concrete storage silos are visible on the left behind the viaduct. To their right are utility poles and overhead cranes, and next to that, part of the Chicago Skyway is visible. A gas storage tank (gas holder) is at the far right side. Part of the United Steelworkers Union Local 65 office building (9350 South Chicago Avenue, now home to the Power Circle Congregation) is visible in front of it.
