It’s cold out there, but Chicago has a long history as a winter wonderland. Here you see Chicagoans ice-skating at the Marina City ice rink in the 1960s in a photograph available in the Ryerson & Burnham Archives’ Bertrand Goldberg Papers. Look closely to spot someone enjoying a snowy walk in Jackson Park in the late 19th/early 20th century in a lantern slide from the Ryerson & Burnham Archives’ Historic Architecture and Landscape Image Collection. The libraries will be closed from 5:00 pm on Thursday, December 22, until 1:00 pm on Tuesday, December 27. We hope that you enjoy the snow, and that your holiday weekend is merry and bright! -- source link
