A drive through North Beverly, Chicago, part three

Join me for the final part of a leisurely Saturday morning walk and drive through an area that may change your perception of Chicago's southwest side. If I hadn't told you where we were, you might have guessed Winnetka, or an equally affluent patch of Chicago's north shore.
North Beverly is bounded by the Dan Ryan Woods Forest Preserve to the north, 95th St on the south, and ranges east from the country clubs along Western Ave to the forest preserve and Beverly Ave. Hop on the Metra's Rock Island line at the 91st St station, and two stops and 24 minutes later you'll be downtown at the LaSalle St station.

Lol--I went to that orange school too - Kate Starr Kellogg! Across the street is Catholic gradeschool and church Christ The King. Very great Irish Catholic Population in Beverly! Lots of kids to play with on my block...St.Benedicts across 95th--plenty of kids to attend all of them! Was very segregated and racist! at the least vigorously hostile to Blacks when I grew up there during civil rights era.

They had to put up a police camera at the park because some black kid got jumped by a bunch of white teens. I believe that was about 10 years ago. It's probably not as bad as when you were here, but it is still mostly White.
