A few words of description will inform the reader of what has been placed below the surface of the site to support the enormous weight of the building when that is completed. From the records in the possession of Alderman Francis W. Taylor, Chairman of the City Hall building Committee, it appears that the wrecking of the old City Hall was commenced on August 11, 1908, and that work on the new foundations was begun on January 4, 1909. -
East Albany Park and Ravenswood Manor
East Albany Park and Ravenswood Manor The Walk: This walk takes you to the very eastern part of Albany Park and even spills slightly over the border into North Park and Ravenswood. The western part of Albany Park is home to North Mayfair, another historic district, and will be the focus of another walk. East Albany Park and Ravenswood Manor German and Swedish immigrants initially settled the Albany Park area. After 1912, the area became home to a large number of Russian Jews and remained predominately Jewish through the 1950s. After the Second World War, many Jewish families moved north to Lincolnwood and Skokie. The suburban exodus led Albany Park into economic and social decline. In the 1970s, 70% of the commercial property along Lawrence Avenue stood vacant. Empty buildings attracted illegal drug trade, prostitution and gangs. Relief came in 1978 when the city government, the North River Commission and the Lawrence Avenue Development Corporation cooperated to improve Albany Park’s appearance and business development. After the 1970s , Albany Park became a port of entry for immigrants from Asia and Latin America and today it is one of the most ethnically diverse zipcodes in the United States. Over 40 languages are spoken in its public schools. (from Encyclopedia of Chicago and Wikipedia) Main Walk (marked in red dots on the map) 1.River Park 5100 N. Francisco Ave. Chicago architect Clarence Hatzfeld designed the impressive brick fieldhouse with a three-story central section and a long wing on either end. It was constructed in 1929 to replace the original structure. -

Breaking Through the Wall Real,-Berlin Marathon, Germany
Breaking through the wall real,-Berlin Marathon, Germany. 28 September 2003 Paul Tergat burst through the Brandenburg Gate, but that wasn’t the barrier he was aiming to break. Fourteen years later, history had moved on down the road. The first sub-2:05 marathon ever run lay 400m ahead of him, if he could only keep going … and stay ahead of his friend and training partner Sammy Korir. He did it, and Korir came in, hard on his heels over the last 200m, only a second later. Third across the line was Titus Munji, who had kept pace with his two compatriots until 36km. It had all been in the plan, which was for Tergat to be paced as far as possible into this deliberate world record attempt. The main unknown was how far that may have been. It was a bold gambit. Although Tergat had all possible credentials RECORD BREAKERS... Paul Tergat and Andres Espinosa - as five-time World Cross champion, former 10,000m world seemed to be hanging on. It was lead. Nothing seemed to change record holder and fastest ever still half a minute shy of world in terms of effort, but it was now over the half marathon - he had record pace. Passing over the up to Korir to claw back that not won a marathon in five course’s single significant rise, space as they raced towards what attempts. But he had run the third Tergat was away with his pacers, was clearly going to be a sub-2:05 fastest marathon ever, over a and at 30km was on pace for a clocking. -
