Winter 2017/2018 Ravenswood Manor Improvement Association WINTER 2017–18 Does the Manor Merit Local Landmark Protection? Credit: of National Register Places Historic The consistent scale and design of the buildings in Ravenswood Manor make it a good candidate for Chicago Landmark status. Boundaries of a local district would be similar—but not identical—to those of the existing National Register Historic District (see map).

The RMIA is now looking for volunteers to serve on the task force. The triangular-shaped parcel, which is owned by the Metropolitan Wa- ter Reclamation District of Chicago, has been maintained as a park by RMIA since 1977, when it was named for longtime RMIA President Arthur J. LaPointe. The park’s 1994 landscape plan is showing signs of wear, while periodic flooding has limited the park’s use. The RMIA Board has authorized funding for improvements—but a comprehensive design plan is needed. Are you curious?

Manor News / Winter 2017–18 3 People of East Albany Park (PEAP) was honored as having the “Best Neighborhood Block Party,” which is held on the 4500-block of Albany Park Avenue in early August. “Most block parties in the city are provincial af- fairs,” New City said, “but the block party put on by PEAP welcomes whoever wants to come…in a welcoming spirit of generosity pretty much unparalleled by others in Chicago today.” PEAP represents the area bounded by Montrose, Troy, Whipple, and Wilson avenues, immediately west of Ravenswood Manor. See face- “Best of Chicago” book.com/PeapBlockClub. The October 26th issue of New City magazine featured two area attrac- tions in its annual listing of the “Best of Chicago.” The Ravenswood Manor social media site was identified as “Best Facebook Neighborhood Group.” According to New City, the group “sets a high bar for community engagement… equal parts gossipy and a modern-day neighborhood watch.” The article applauded the group for helping to mobilize response to Nazi graffiti at Waters Elementary School, helping residents stay informed about crime in the area, and communicating with the alderman’s office and police department. See facebook.com/groups/65240842795/. The Ravenswood Manor Facebook group is not affiliated with the RMIA organization, whose Facebook group is titled Ravenswood Manor Improvement Association.

The only man who could accomplish the difficult task of bringing a common downtown terminal to the Chicago elevated rapid transit system, which used to end at a separate terminal for each company, was Charles Tyson Yerkes. He had enough political deftness and power to convince store owners to sign consent forms allowing construction of the overhead structures on their streets (although alley routes were briefly contemplated). Though it was difficult — two segments had to be obtained under the names of existing "L" companies while for the two other legs, two companies, the Union Elevated Railroad and the Union Consolidated Elevated Railroad, had to be created — Yerkes managed to coordinate it all. As can be imagined from its piecemeal The construction of the Loop through downtown, seen here look- method of obtaining of leases, the Union Loop (referred ing west at Lake and Wabash circa 1894, was a major construction to simply as "the Loop" today) opened in pieces, starting project.

  • Federal Transit Administration Region V Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI)
    Federal Transit Administration Region V RED-PURPLE BYPASS PROJECT IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) A. Introduction This document provides the basis for a determination by the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT), Federal Transit Administration (FTA), of a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the Red‐Purple Bypass Project. This determination is made in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, 42 United States Code (U.S.C.) § 4332(2)(c); FTA’s implementing procedures (23 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] § 771.121); Section 4(f) of the USDOT Act of 1966, 49 U.S.C. § 303; and the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, 54 U.S.C. § 300101 et seq. FTA, as the federal lead agency, and Chicago Transit Authority (CTA), as the local project sponsor, jointly prepared the Environmental Assessment (EA) and Section 4(f) Evaluation to describe potential impacts on the human and natural environment and historic integrity that may result from the Red‐Purple Bypass Project on the CTA Red and Purple lines. The EA was prepared pursuant to 23 CFR § 771.119 and issued by FTA on May 19, 2015. This FONSI is prepared by FTA pursuant to 23 CFR § 771.121., and incorporates by reference the EA and other cited documentation. B. Existing Conditions Figure 1 is a map of the project limits. The Red‐Purple Bypass Project area is approximately 5 miles north of downtown Chicago, in the Lakeview community area. The project area, just north of Belmont station, includes the existing junction where three CTA rail lines, the Red, Purple, and Brown lines, converge at an existing flat junction (known as Clark Junction), mainline Red and Purple line tracks extend north to Newport and Cornelia Avenues, and the Brown Line branch extends west to approximately Seminary Avenue.

    Word Searchable Version not a True Copy National Transportation Library Section 508 and Accessibility Compliance The National Transportation Library (NTL) both links to and collects electronic documents in a variety of formats from a variety of sources. The NTL makes every effort to ensure that the documents it collects are accessible to all persons in accordance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act Amendments of 1998 (29 USC 794d), however, the NTL, as a library and digital repository, collects documents it does not create, and is not responsible for the content or form of documents created by third parties. Since June 21, 2001, all electronic documents developed, procured, maintained or used by the federal government are required to comply with the requirements of Section 508. If you encounter problems when accessing our collection, please let us know by writing to [email protected] or by contacting us at (800) 853- 1351. Telephone assistance is available 9AM to 6:30PM Eastern Time, 5 days a week (except Federal holidays). We will attempt to provide the information you need or, if possible, to help you obtain the information in an alternate format. Additionally, the NTL staff can provide assistance by reading documents, facilitate access to specialists with further technical information, and when requested, submit the documents or parts of documents for further conversion. Document Transcriptions In an effort to preserve and provide access to older documents, the NTL has chosen to selectively transcribe printed documents into electronic format. This has been achieved by making an OCR (optical character recognition) scan of a printed copy.
