Born in La Ceiba, Honduras, Van Buren was orphaned at age ten and was sent to live with relatives in New Orleans, Louisiana. There he attended Warren Easton High School, and tried out for the football team originally as a sophomore, but did not make the team. Later that year he dropped out of high school and went to work in an iron foundry. He returned to high school two years later and made the team as an end his senior year. He played well enough that season to earn an athletic scholarship to Louisiana State University (LSU) in Baton Rouge.
College career
At LSU, he was used primarily for blocking until his senior season, when head coach Bernie Moore moved him to tailback because of a lack of players due to World War IIconscription. Van Buren received a Class IV-F exemption due to an eye defect, and so was able to avoid conscription. He began the 1943 season by scoring four touchdowns in a 34–27 win over Georgia, including the game-winning touchdown with less than two minutes left to play. His final game was the 1944 Orange Bowl against Texas A&M, in which he ran for two touchdowns and threw for one more to give LSU a 19–14 victory. He finished the season with 847 yards rushing and 16 touchdowns. He also led the nation with 98 points scored (110 including the bowl game).
Completed in January 2010, it is a residential building with 714 condominium units, an 11-story, 570-spot parking garage, as well as approximately 10,000 sq. ft. of retail space located on the building's first two floors. The building is currently home to the South Loop Market, Van Buren Gentlemen's Salon, and the 235 Van Buren On-Site Sales Center.
Each residence has modern interiors with floor-to-ceiling windows, 10 foot ceilings, and exposed concrete accents.
The building is aimed at first time homebuyers looking for a 1 to 3 bedroom condo. It also has a penthouse on the top floor which was featured on an episode of HGTV's House Hunters TV Show.
Van Buren was the codename given to what would have been Fallout 3, a role-playing video game that was being developed by Black Isle Studios before the parent company, Interplay Entertainment, laid off the PC development team on December 8, 2003, effectively cancelling the game. Prior to its cancellation, Van Buren was set to carry on the Fallout series, but was not a sequel to Fallout 2. An official Fallout 3, unrelated to the abandoned Van Buren project, was developed by Bethesda Game Studios after Interplay sold the single-player rights to the franchise to Bethesda Softworks. It was released October 28, 2008.
Buren (pronunciation) is a municipality and a city in the Betuwe region in the Netherlands. It is also a historical county, with the Dutch Monarch still holding the title "Count of Buren".
The earliest known reference to the settlement dates from 772. The castle built by the Lords of Buren is first mentioned in 1298. The town was granted city rights in 1395 by Sir Alard IV of Buren, which led to the construction of a defensive wall and a moat. Significant parts of these still exist. In 1492 the region was promoted to a county (i.e. ruled by a count), but due to its isolated position it never became very important economically. By 1574 the previously Catholic parish church of Saint Lambert (Dutch:Sint Lambertus) had already become CalvinistReformed Protestant.
Buren is also home to the infamous legend of the witchRixt van het Oerd (e.g. Rixt of Oerd). This old lady would tie a lantern on a cow who she would chase into the dunes. She would hope for a ship to mistake the cow for a lighthouse, thinking it was a safe haven. Instead the ship would run aground on the sand bars along the coastline, leaving its cargo for her to pick up from the beach. One day in a heavy storm, she practiced her reckless way of making extra money and encountered the dead body of a drowned sailor. As she came closer she realized that it was her own son, Sjoerd. After realizing what she has done, every time there is now a storm raging over Ameland, she howls out her son's name in the wind.
In remembrance of the legend of Rixt van het Oerd, there is a small statue in the center of Buren.
500 years ago the population consisted of pirates and bandits, today the residents live from the tourist industry (school classes from Germany visit Ameland and stay at Buren.)
One of the first power backs in NFL history. A Hall of Famer, 5x All Pro and 2x NFL Champion. Van Buren ran through defenders, scoring 69 touchdowns.

1948 NFL Championship: Philadelphia Eagles 7, Chicago Cardinals 0
The 1948 National Football League Championship game was the 16th NFL title game played. The game was a rematch of the previous year's championship game between the Chicago Cardinals, champions of the Western Division and the Philadelphia Eagles, champions of the Eastern Division. It was the first NFL championship game to be televised. In the early days of television, "snow" was a frequent problem, but in this case the snow was real. The grounds crew needed the help of players from both teams to remove the tarp from the field, because of the heavy snowfall.
The game (also known as the Philly Blizzard) was played at Philadelphia's Shibe Park on December 19, 1948 during a significant snowstorm. Bert Bell, commissioner of the NFL had considered postponing the game but the players for both tea...

The teams played a scoreless game until early in the fourth quarter when, after Chicago had fumbled in their own end of the field, the Eagles recovered the fumble that set up Steve Van Buren's five yard touchdown at 1:05 into the fourth quarter.
This game turned out be the Cardinals' last appearance in any NFL Championship game until Super Bowl XLIII. Ironically, the Cardinals would have to beat the Eagles in the 2009 NFC Championship Game to get to the Super Bowl.
