Excerpt from Report to the Mayor and the City Council of the City of Chicago You, Of course, are advised of the somewhat unsettled condition of the ownership of the lake frontage caused by extensive filling in from time to time of the submerged lands. Large areas of these submerged lands have been filled in and are now in process of being filled in and are taken possession of by private parties without authority of law, as the writer believes, and day by day, week by week, and month by month, these aggressive private interests advance further and further into and over the waters of the lake, appropri ating to their own uses the common heritage Of the people, the most valuable, attractive and artistic lake water frontage ever possessed by a free city. Between Grant Park and Twenty-second Street, between Forty-seventh Street and Fifty-first Street and between Fifty-third Street and Jackson Park this process of the extension of private dominion over the natural recreation beaches and playgrounds of the city goes steadily, rapidly and persistently for ward. These aggressive private interests never slumber; their paid agents and attorneys are ever on the alert to extend their jurisdiction lakeward, while in the meantime the public, inactive and slothful, its representatives ever chang ing by the change in political administration, sleeps on its rights and the peo ple's heritage pays the penalty. In connection with the work of the Special Committee on Bathing Beaches and Amusement Piers, the writer's attention was first directed to this subject, and as a member of such committee, and with the consent and approval of the chairman thereof, the writer, with a view of bringing some order, if pos sible, out of the general chaos that seemed to pertain relative to the lake front.

The Standard Oil Company emerged out of obscurity in the 1860s to capture 90 percent of the petroleum refining industry in the United States during the Gilded Age. John D. Rockefeller, the company’s founder, organized the company around an almost religious dedication to principles of efficiency. Economic success masked the dark side of efficiency as Standard Oil dumped oil waste into public waterways, filled the urban atmosphere with acrid smoke, and created a consumer safety crisis by selling kerosene below congressional standards. Local governments, guided by a desire to favor the interests of business, deployed elaborate engineering solutions to tackle petroleum pollution at taxpayer expense rather than heed public calls to abate waste streams at their source. Only when refinery pollutants threatened the health of the Great Lakes in the twentieth century did the federal government respond to a nascent environmental movement. Organized around the four classical elements at the core of Standard Oil’s success (earth, air, fire, and water), Refining Nature provides an ecological context for the rise of one of the most important corporations in American history.

Building the South Side explores the struggle for influence that dominated the planning and development of Chicago's South Side during the Progressive Era. Robin F. Bachin examines the early days of the University of Chicago, Chicago’s public parks, Comiskey Park, and the Black Belt to consider how community leaders looked to the physical design of the city to shape its culture and promote civic interaction. Bachin highlights how the creation of a local terrain of civic culture was a contested process, with the battle for cultural authority transforming urban politics and blurring the line between private and public space. In the process, universities, parks and playgrounds, and commercial entertainment districts emerged as alternative arenas of civic engagement. “Bachin incisively charts the development of key urban institutions and landscapes that helped constitute the messy vitality of Chicago’s late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century public realm.”—Daniel Bluestone, Journal of American History "This is an ambitious book filled with important insights about issues of public space and its use by urban residents. . . . It is thoughtful, very well written, and should be read and appreciated by anyone interested in Chicago or cities generally. It is also a gentle reminder that people are as important as structures and spaces in trying to understand urban development." —Maureen A. Flanagan, American Historical Review
