This place used to be on the west side of Green Bay Rd., just south of Grand Ave. The buildings are gone and the land is now the Heritage Green Apartments. View is looking west. The sign on the lower left, on the side of the driveway, reads "Waukegan Nursery / Shrubs * Vines * Small Trees * Evergreens / [and an old school phone number of:] Call DE-0-0300 Waukegan ILL". The sign on the building on the lower right reads "Haglund Inc. / General Contrators / * Industrial * Residential * Commercial * / [unreadable tagline text] Call ON-2-2806" and then on the door "Merican Blue Grass".
