Photo 1.14. January 6, 1916. Building on the northeast corner of Western Avenue, on the left, and Fulton Street, in the foreground, north of the Calumet-Sag Channel route. Construction has already begun on the channel, and perhaps District employees would stop at the Loop Buffet for lunch. A construction field office was located in Blue Island, overseeing the eastern end of the channel. (MWRD photo 5325)
