Archives Pop-Up: Chicago Transit Authority Turns 79

The Chicago Transit Authority turns 79 this October, and the Harold Washington Library marks the occasion with a pop-up display of transit history drawn from the Municipal Reference Collection. Drop in Thursday evening, October 1, from 5:30 to 7 PM to browse maps, books, pamphlets, promotional materials, and reports that trace the CTA from the early 20th century to today. No tickets required — just walk in during the two-hour window.
