History

The Great Depression slowed construction in the ensuing decade, although the population continued to grow, largely aided by the presence of the western terminal of Chicago's Blue_Line_%28Chicago_Transit_Authority%29 transit line. Samuel Insull purchased the land in 1924 with plans to recreate an England style town. It is a western suburb of Chicago. Expansion has resulted in elimination of nearly all open land within the village. However, the Eisenhower Interstate System's creation in 1956 led to the construction of nearby expressways Interstate_290_%28Illinois%29 and Interstate_294_%28Illinois%29 providing residents with convenient travel.
