1937–104th Street @ Avenue L Boulevard, view west
2024–the same location
The 1937 photo captures the Chicago Park District’s conversion of Avenue L into a boulevard. Reflecting the boulevard’s enhanced status, two stop signs for cross traffic are already in place.
Today Avenue L is nothing more than an exceptionally-wide local side street. Reflecting that reality, this intersection now has full, four-way stop signs.
