Streeterville: The Land Built on Garbage by a Conman

Streeterville is a hoity-toity neighborhood in Chicago's Near North Side. It's where you'll find the eastern half of the Miracle Mile, Navy Pier, and the John Hancock Tower which is not called 875 N Michigan Avenue by.....nobody.
It's hoity-toity because it's on Chicago's lakefront. But its history isn't so hoity-toity. It was build on rubble and named after a con-artist that spent time in prison.
