1 Welcome to the Conference
By Timothy Gilfoyle, UHA President
Welcome to Chicago! As 2015-16 President of the Urban History Association, I want to welcome you to the Eighth Biennial UHA Conference, the largest and hopefully the most exciting ever. Over four days, the conference will be home to approximately 550 urban historians, writers, scholars and journalists from six continents, 40 states, the District of Columbia and a dozen countries, including Australia, Canada, Chile, China, Denmark, Germany, Great Britain, the Netherlands, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, South Africa and South Korea. More than ever, the UHA is a transnational and international institution. Conference participants will be involved in more than 150 panels, plenaries, roundtables, and tours during their four days in Chicago.
The conference theme – The Working Urban – highlights the importance of the varieties of labor in urban history and the multiple ways urban historians define their own work. The program reflects that diversity with more than 30 panels devoted to workshops, roundtables, plenaries and book discussions, while paying special attention to topics marking the anniversaries of events that profoundly influenced cities, including Martin Luther King’s campaign to “End Slums” in Chicago, the Immigration Act of 1965 and the 100th birthday of Jane Jacobs.
Most of you have visited Chicago. But the weather is often less than hospitable (January for the American Historical Association annual meeting). I hope you can spend some time exploring the city. Walk in any direction from our conference site. Within 45 minutes you can see the first glass box skyscrapers designed by Mies van der Rohe in the U.S., the oldest apartments or “French Flats” in Chicago, Hugh Hefner’s original Playboy mansion, the bullet marks on Holy Name Cathedral where Hymie Weiss was gunned down in 1926 by his gangland enemies, America’s first “vertical mall” in Water Tower Place, the great inland sea of North America (Lake Michigan), the “cathedral” of American evangelicalism at the Moody Bible Institute, the hotel where David Mamet wrote American Buffalo, and, of course, some of the few surviving structures of the great Chicago Fire of 1871: the Pumping Station and Water Tower on Michigan Avenue.
All of us should give special thanks to Executive Director Timothy Neary for not only organizing this conference, but also moving the UHA into the 21st century with its new website (check it out at http://www.urbanhistory.org/); Nathan D.B. Connolly and Donna Murch for reading more panel and paper proposals thanTENTATIVE any other UHA program chairs in history; and Brad Hunt and René Alvarez for helping with local arrangements and assembling one of the most interesting rosters of urban tours of any UHA conference to date. On behalf of the UHA, I want to gratefully thank the major sponsors of the conference: Loyola University Chicago’s College of Arts and Sciences, Graduate School, Department of History, and Center for Urban Research and Learning; the College of Arts and Letters at the University of Notre Dame; the Chicago History Museum; the Minow Family Foundation; and the University of Chicago Press.
Enjoy Chicago.

9:45 AM-12:00 PM – Tour: National Public Housing Museum: Work and Vision in Progress Guide: D. Bradford Hunt. Departs and Ends: Lobby of Corboy Law Center, 25 E. Pearson Street How do we tell the story of public housing's past in a museum? In 2007, a group of public housing residents sought to create a museum so that their story would not be forgotten once redevelopment demolished their former community. Since then, residents, former residents, and a collection of committed supporters has worked to develop the National Public Housing Museum (NPHM). The UHA will tour the site for the future museum - the last standing building of the former Jane Addams Homes - with D. Bradford Hunt, NPHM Board Member and Vice President for Research and Academic Programs at the Newberry Library. Since renovation of the structure has not yet begun, we will see the potential for a museum, not a finished one, and we will reflect on the challenges of telling the multiple stories of public housing in a museum context. We will travel by CTA train and foot (about 1.2 miles round-trip) from the Corboy Law Center, 25 E. Pearson Street, to 1322 W. Taylor Street and back.
12:00-3:30 PM – Tour: Hull-House, UIC and the Near West Side Guides: Rima Lunin Schultz, Ellen Skerrett and Deborah Kanter. Departs and Ends: Lobby of Corboy Law Center Since 1963, the renowned settlement founded in 1889 by Jane Addams and Ellen Gates Starr has been a museum at the University of Illinois at Chicago. This tour examines the built environment of the surrounding neighborhood, including the controversial Walter Netsch campus; the extant Little Italy of Taylor Street; Holy Family Church, the largest Irish Catholic parish in Chicago in the 1890s; St. Ignatius College Prep; and St. FrancisTENTATIVE Assisi Church, the Mexican American “cathedral” of Chicago. The tour ends at Roosevelt Road and Halsted Street, near the Maxwell Street Market arch, symbolizing the lost immigrant world and the new, chic urbanism of the university—both rooted in Mayor Richard J. Daley's plan to re-design downtown Chicago and its close environs. We will leave the Corboy Center, 25 E. Pearson Street, at noon and travel by CTA train and foot to the Jane Addams Hull-House Museum, 800 S. Halsted Street. We plan to return via the Roosevelt Road bus to the CTA red line, arriving at the conference by 3:30.
5:00-7:00 PM – Reception Pritzker Music Pavilion, Millennium Park, 205 E. Randolph Street
