Just passed the Zion church at the 7:46 mark is the Historic building on Charles S. Jackson funeral Home at 7346 S Cottage Grove Ave. I visited and photographed this building last year when I randomly passed it while visiting Chicago. It was one of the coolest old building I have ever seen. It is very large in size and has a lot of history. It was ran by the first black funeral director of Chicago and honestly deserves some historic recognition. I would love to see more photos and videos of this building and it's history. Thank you for the upload and I enjoyed the drive.
Thought I saw A Leak funeral parlor sorta recognized 71 St & cottage Grove also saw the Grand Ballroom , not much is recognizeable sense I’ve been goon . On Marquette Rd is unrecognizable the newspaper stand gone by your morning paper and catch the bus, one word describes the trip down Cottage Grove “Sad”.
I grew up in the Bronzeville/North Kenwood area. 23:10 is where I used to catch the bus (#4 Cottage Grove) to High School(Dunbar Career Academy) and to work(Jewel Osco) I miss this neighborhood!
