In 1937, the Chicago’s Charter Jubilee celebrated the Windy City’s 100th year as a city. That year, the Charter Jubilee committee commissioned 78 historical markers to be placed around the city at sites important to the city’s history. More than 85 years later, only about 20 of these plaques remain—the others lost to history for a variety of reasons.
