This vintage print captures the bustling scene on Wabash Avenue in Chicago during the 1890s. The image showcases a vibrant city street filled with traditional retail shops, including the renowned Bretanos bookstore.

The storefronts are adorned with awnings, providing shade for those strolling along this iconic stretch of road in downtown Chicago's Loop neighborhood. This snapshot from the past offers a glimpse into the thriving commerce that defined this era in American history. Transportation played a crucial role in shaping urban life at that time, as evidenced by the presence of streetcars traversing Wabash Avenue.
