Yerkes Observatory
To be honest, I'd never heard of the place - located on the shores of Lake Geneva - which is a shame, since this is "The birthplace of modern astrophysics." This University of Chicago facility has a fascinating history - check the website below for details.
I would like to thank Mr. Bob Francis for contributing these photos to the archive, it's a bit of Chicagoland history I was missing.
