The buildings with the letters on them are still there today. See www.encyclopedia.chicagohistory.org/pages/785.html for info on the Central Manufacturing District industrial park of which they are part.

I worked there when the Chicago Board of Education was headquartered in those buildings in the early 90s.

This is at about 1735 to about 1800 West Pershing Road from Hermitage to Wolcott Ave. This is the South side of the building. (6 stories tall, two subbasements, built in 1916). Used in WWII as a food depot. Later used as grave storage. During the 1950s and 1960s it was the 5th Army headquarters used to teach meat inspectors (this is just west and north of the Chicago stockyards area), also military police and two National Guard units. (Comment offered by National Book Festival attendee who used to live across the street from this facility.)

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Classic cars of Montreal / Voitures Classiques de Montréal, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

I agree on the date. Most of the vehicles are from the 1920's. I also noticed the sign in the upper left advertising Fletcher's Castoria. I remember that all too well.
