University of Illinois at Chicago University Library



Geographic Coverage

The boundaries of Chicago changed as areas were annexed to the city. For example, permits dated 1898 cover only those areas included within the city boundaries at that time. As areas were annexed to the city, they would then be included in the building permits. See the attached map for the city's 1871 boundaries delineated on those of the modern city. Formerly independent villages and towns, such as Hyde Park, Lake, and Lakeview, that were annexed in 1889, are listed separately prior to 1895.
