Why Chicagoland's Oasis is Disappearing | The Rise and Fall of The Illinois Tollway Oasis
Join us on a fascinating journey through the Chicagoland Oasis as we explore the history of rest stops in the region. Starting with an overview of Chicago's history as a transportation hub, we delve into the rest stops on the Erie Canal, the Galena and Chicago Union Railway, and the Illinois and Michigan Canals. We also examine the emergence of rest stops along the Chicago L and the rise of Chicago highways.
Moving on to the present, we explore the history of various rest stops along the Illinois State Tollway, including Belvedere Oasis, Dekalb Oasis, Lake Forest Oasis, and Chicago Southland Lincoln Oasis. We also uncover the stories behind the lost Hinsdale Oasis, Des Plaines Oasis, and O'hare Oasis.
