Liquid Capital: Making the Chicago Waterfront - American Business, Politics, and Society
Joshua A. T. Salzmann
In the nineteenth century, politicians transformed a disease-infested bog on the shore of Lake Michigan into an intensely managed waterscape supporting the life and economy of Chicago. Liquid Capital shows how Chicago's waterfront became both an economic hub and the site of many precedent-setting decisions about public land use.
