Photo 21-BIR-2 from 1965

Comments

Tough one to pinpoint, but appears to be a house on 30 or so acres owned by Walter Christensen in the 1950's (page 206 of "This is Iroquois County" by John Drury). Aerial photos from the 1980s show a consistent-looking house and shed. To the right is the newly constructed Interstate 57. By the mid 2000's this was all gone.
