This photo was taken at 7:30pm from the North Avenue bridge, July 6, 1947. From the 1940s to the 70s, a section north of North Avenue featured a unique, though problem-plagued, system of curb-high lane barriers that could be raised or lowered to provide six lanes in the direction of rush-hour traffic instead of the standard four lanes in each direction. — Chicago Tribune historical photo. I posted this to show the lane dividers, that could be raised or lowered during rush hour.
