Maxwell St. Events During the 1998 Chicago Blues Festival, June 4 - June 7.


-- info provided by the Maxwell Street Historic Preservation Coalition


Background: Meetings at City Hall have taken place with the University of Illinois, The City of Chicago Dept. of Planning and Development, and the Maxwell Street Historic Preservation Coalition to try to save the old Maxwell Street area as a historic district. We await the University's decision. This may be the last year people will have the opportunity to visit this historic area to imbibe its continuity of culture of over 120 years.



For more information on any of these events contact the Maxwell Street Historic Preservation Coalition at 312-341-3696 or email us at mar@interaccess.com. Check our website for future updates <http://www.openair.org/maxwell/preserve.html>.

Tours by arrangement can be made available by calling Professor Steve Balkin <312-341-3696> or Lori Grove <312-421-0078>
