Historical Photo Guessing Game: Plot Of Land Is Mellody Farms

Thanks to Gail Hodges for providing the photo of this bridge that crossed over, at that time (1909), the Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul Railway Company tracks on Mellody Farm located on the estate of the late J. Ogden Armour in Lake Forest.

Remnants of the bridge were still visible several years ago from a path on the east side of Lake Forest Academy. Hodges reports their is also an interesting wall left from the estate. "It's deteriorating, and there have been recent efforts to save some of the tiles falling off the wall," she said. (see the old photos) 

Thanks for those of you who added some historical notes to your guesses as well.

We will be back next Sunday with another posting. Hope everyone can make the Heritage Festival and Art Fair on this coming Labor Day weekend.

Thanks for your continued participation and feedback.
