Blue Island was established in the 1830s as a way station for settlers traveling on the Vincennes Trace, and the settlement prospered because it was conveniently situated a day's journey outside of Chicago. The late-nineteenth-century historian and publisher Alfred T. Andreas made the following observation regarding the appearance of the young community in History of Cook County Illinois (1884), "The location of Blue Island Village is a beautiful one. Nowhere about Chicago is there to be found a more pleasant and desirable resident locality."
Since its founding, the city has been an important commercial center in the south Cook County region, although its position in that respect has been eclipsed in recent years as other significant population centers developed around it and the region's commercial resources became spread over a wider area. In addition to its broad long-standing industrial base, the city enjoyed notable growth in the 1840s during the construction of the feeder canal (now the Calumet Sag Channel) for the Illinois and Michigan Canal, as the center of a large brick-making industry beginning in the 1850s, which eventually gave Blue Island the status of brick-making capitol of the world. Beginning in 1883, Blue Island was also host to the car shops of the Rock Island Railroad. Blue Island was home to several breweries, who used the east side of the hill to store their product before the advent of refrigeration, until the Eighteenth Amendment made these breweries illegal in 1919. A large regional hospital and two major clinics are also located in the city.
The Vermont Street Metra station on the south side of Vermont Street serves Metra's Rock Island District, which service splits at that station creating a spur Suburban Line which services stations in Blue Island, Morgan Park, Beverly Hills, Brainard and Auburn/Gresham, with some rush-hour trains heading north-east on the main line. Blue Island and Vermont Street stations share the same parking facilities and bus connections.
Although today the state's largest population center is around Chicago in the northern part of the state, the state's European population grew first in the west, with French Canadians who settled along the Mississippi River, and gave the area the name, Illinois. After the American Revolutionary War established the United States, American settlers began arriving from Kentucky in the 1810s via the Ohio River, and the population grew from south to north. In 1818, Illinois achieved statehood. After construction of the Erie Canal increased traffic and trade through the Great Lakes, Chicago was founded in the 1830s on the banks of the Chicago River, at one of the few natural harbors on southern Lake Michigan.John Deere's invention of the self-scouring steel plow turned Illinois' rich prairie into some of the world's most productive and valuable farmlands, attracting immigrant farmers from Germany and Sweden. Railroads carried immigrants to new homes, as well as being used to ship their commodity crops out to markets.
Though soon outclassed by newer and larger vessels, Illinois was destined to enjoy a long and distinguished career, first as a transatlantic passenger liner and later as the U.S. Navy'sauxiliary vesselUSSSupply. In the 1870s, Illinois may have been the first ship to successfully transport a shipment of fresh meat from the United States to Europe, twenty years before the introduction of refrigeration. As USS Supply, the ship served in both the Spanish–American War and the First World War, and crew members may have been the first United States personnel to fire a hostile shot in the latter. Illinois was scrapped in 1928.

Springfield, Illinois — On September 4, 2024 at approximately 5:41 p.m., Springfield Police Officers responded to a shots fired incident in the 1600 block of S. 16th Street. Officers recovered shell casings at the scene and witnesses reported that a subject fired several rounds from a vehicle, striking an occupied residence. During the subsequent investigation, officers were able to identify the vehicle used as well as the suspect who fired from the vehicle. Further investigation into the suspect revealed that he was likely to be armed and is a current suspect in a recent robbery. At approximately 11:28 p.m., Springfield Police Officers located the suspect vehicle and approached the occupants in the 1100 block of S. 18th Street.
Officers identified the front seat passenger as the suspect from the shots fired incident and attempted to take him into custody. The suspect resisted the officers attempt to place him under arrest and fired one round from a handgun in the immediate proximity of officers. One Springfield Police Officer quickly returned fire, striking the suspect. Multiple officers on scene provided life-saving care to the injured suspect and immediately requested an ambulance to respond. He was transported to HSHS St. John’s Hospital and is currently listed in stable condition with non-life-threatening injuries. A firearm was recovered from the injured suspect and a spent shell casing was found on the scene.

Illinois is the last state that we drove through on our 14 day Route 66 journey. For most people, this will be the first state as the route is most often traveled from east to west. We found a lot of great spots in Illinois with the Gemini Giant, Cozy Dog Drive-In and the Pontiac Museum being some of our favorites. I hope you enjoyed this road trip series and let me know if you have any comments below.

Blue Island was established in the 1830s as a way station for settlers traveling on the Vincennes Trace, and the settlement prospered because it was conveniently situated a day's journey outside of Chicago. The late-nineteenth-century historian and publisher Alfred T. Andreas made the following observation regarding the appearance of the young community in History of Cook County Illinois (1884), "The location of Blue Island Village is a beautiful one. Nowhere about Chicago is there to be found a more pleasant and desirable resident locality."
Since its founding, the city has been an important commercial center in the south Cook County region, although its position in that respect has been eclipsed in recent years as other significant population centers developed around it and the region's commercial resources became spread over a wider area. In addition to its broad long-standing industrial base, the city enjoyed notable growth in the 1840s during the construction of the feeder canal (now the Calumet Sag Channel) for the Illinois and Michigan Canal, as the center of a large brick-making industry beginning in the 1850s, which eventually gave Blue Island the status of brick-making capitol of the world. Beginning in 1883, Blue Island was also host to the car shops of the Rock Island Railroad. Blue Island was home to several breweries, who used the east side of the hill to store their product before the advent of refrigeration, until the Eighteenth Amendment made these breweries illegal in 1919. A large regional hospital and two major clinics are also located in the city.
Living in a world that dies within You are they who try and touch the wind You could be the blessed one that Makes me love you And doing what you've never done before Taking every wave that hits the shore You could be a silver star that shines On my blue island See you on a blue island Take you to a blue island You can see the rain You can feel the pain That no part of me is going through Everybody say, we can find a way Do you know the place you're going to You're going to a blue island This is what the lonely heart must know This is what it takes to make it grow You could be a child alone But you may save the world Maybe it's the words that mean goodbye There but for the grace of God go I I can see an open door that leads to my blue island Gonna be a blue island See you on a blue island Take you to a blue island Blue island Blue island
