Welcome to the Conference
By Timothy Gilfoyle, UHA President
Welcome to Chicago! As 2015-16 President of the Urban History Association, I want to welcome
you to the Eighth Biennial UHA Conference, the largest and hopefully the most exciting ever. Over
four days, the conference will be home to approximately 550 urban historians, writers, scholars and
journalists from six continents, 40 states, the District of Columbia and a dozen countries, including
Australia, Canada, Chile, China, Denmark, Germany, Great Britain, the Netherlands, the
Philippines, Saudi Arabia, South Africa and South Korea. More than ever, the UHA is a
transnational and international institution. Conference participants will be involved in more
than 150 panels, plenaries, roundtables, and tours during their four days in Chicago.

The conference theme – The Working Urban – highlights the importance of the varieties of labor in
urban history and the multiple ways urban historians define their own work. The program reflects
that diversity with more than 30 panels devoted to workshops, roundtables, plenaries and book
discussions, while paying special attention to topics marking the anniversaries of events that
profoundly influenced cities, including Martin Luther King’s campaign to “End Slums” in Chicago,
the Immigration Act of 1965 and the 100th birthday of Jane Jacobs.
TE
Most of you have visited Chicago. But the weather is often less than hospitable (January for the
American Historical Association annual meeting). I hope you can spend some time exploring the
city. Walk in any direction from our conference site. Within 45 minutes you can see the first glass
box skyscrapers designed by Mies van der Rohe in the U.S., the oldest apartments or “French Flats”
in Chicago, Hugh Hefner’s original Playboy mansion, the bullet marks on Holy Name Cathedral
where Hymie Weiss was gunned down in 1926 by his gangland enemies, America’s first “vertical
mall” in Water Tower Place, the great inland sea of North America (Lake Michigan), the
“cathedral” of American evangelicalism at the Moody Bible Institute, the hotel where David Mamet
wrote American Buffalo, and, of course, some of the few surviving structures of the great Chicago
Fire of 1871: the Pumping Station and Water Tower on Michigan Avenue.
All of us should give special thanks to Executive Director Timothy Neary for not only organizing
this conference, but also moving the UHA into the 21st century with its new website (check it out at
http://www.urbanhistory.org/); Nathan D.B. Connolly and Donna Murch for reading more panel
and paper proposals than any other UHA program chairs in history; and Brad Hunt and René
Alvarez for helping with local arrangements and assembling one of the most interesting rosters of
urban tours of any UHA conference to date. On behalf of the UHA, I want to gratefully thank the
major sponsors of the conference: Loyola University Chicago’s College of Arts and Sciences,
Graduate School, Department of History, and Center for Urban Research and Learning; the College
of Arts and Letters at the University of Notre Dame; the Chicago History Museum; the Minow
Family Foundation; and the University of Chicago Press.
Enjoy Chicago.
Timothy Gilfoyle is Professor and former Chair of History at Loyola University Chicago and a trustee at

How do we tell the story of public housing's past in a museum? In 2007, a group of public housing
residents sought to create a museum so that their story would not be forgotten once redevelopment
demolished their former community. Since then, residents, former residents, and a collection of
committed supporters has worked to develop the National Public Housing Museum (NPHM). The
UHA will tour the site for the future museum - the last standing building of the former Jane Addams
Homes - with D. Bradford Hunt, NPHM Board Member and Vice President for Research and Academic
Programs at the Newberry Library. Since renovation of the structure has not yet begun, we will see the
potential for a museum, not a finished one, and we will reflect on the challenges of telling the multiple
stories of public housing in a museum context. We will travel by CTA train and foot (about 1.2 miles
round-trip) from the Corboy Law Center, 25 E. Pearson Street, to 1322 W. Taylor Street and back.
12:00-3:30 PM – Tour: Hull-House, UIC and the Near West Side

Guides: Rima Lunin Schultz, Ellen Skerrett and Deborah Kanter. Departs and Ends: Lobby of Corboy Law Center
Since 1963, the renowned settlement founded in 1889 by Jane Addams and Ellen Gates Starr has been a
museum at the University of Illinois at Chicago. This tour examines the built environment of the
surrounding neighborhood, including the controversial Walter Netsch campus; the extant Little Italy of
Taylor Street; Holy Family Church, the largest Irish Catholic parish in Chicago in the 1890s; St. Ignatius
College Prep; and St. Francis Assisi Church, the Mexican American “cathedral” of Chicago. The tour
ends at Roosevelt Road and Halsted Street, near the Maxwell Street Market arch, symbolizing the lost
immigrant world and the new, chic urbanism of the university—both rooted in Mayor Richard J.
Daley's plan to re-design downtown Chicago and its close environs. We will leave the Corboy Center,
25 E. Pearson Street, at noon and travel by CTA train and foot to the Jane Addams Hull-House
Museum, 800 S. Halsted Street. We plan to return via the Roosevelt Road bus to the CTA red line,
arriving at the conference by 3:30.
5:00-7:00 PM – Reception Pritzker Music Pavilion, Millennium Park, 205 E. Randolph Street
Public Transit: Take CTA Buses #151 or #147 south from Michigan Avenue and Pearson Street, in front
of Water Tower Place (two blocks east on Pearson Street from Corboy); exit bus at Michigan Ave. and
Randolph St., and walk east to 205 (15 minutes).

This tour uses Catholic churches to explore the different ethnic groups and their built environment
who have lived and live in areas like Pilsen--Poles, Czechs, Croats, as well as Mexicans. Pilsen presents
a complex history of Euro-American, Mexican, and Mexican-American relations. We will visit several
parish complexes and see how these institutions shaped the lives of so many people in one of Chicago’s
oldest neighborhoods. We will travel by CTA train and foot from the Corboy Law Center, 25 E.
Pearson Street (9:00 a.m.) to the 18th Street “L” station (Pink Line), Ground Floor Lobby. We anticipate
returning at 12:30 to the conference site.

Mexicans and Mexican Americans have been calling Chicago home since the 1920s, when they began
arriving as immigrant laborers. Today, more than two million people of Mexican descent live and
work in Chicago, having forged a social and cultural identity over time. This tour explores that history
and the development of Mexican Chicago, including visits to Benito Juárez High School and the
National Museum of Mexican Art. The tour will begin at the 18th St. “L” station (Pink Line), Ground
Floor Lobby. Participants departing from the conference site should allot 45 minutes both ways for
transit time on the CTA.
Public Transit: Take the CTA Red Line south from the State & Chicago station to the Lake Station; exit
station and walk one block north to the CTA Pink Line State/Lake Station and take the train to 18th
Street (35 minutes).
