The Streets of Berwyn

Though I'll never be able to think of the name of the place without hearing the old Son of Svengoolie bit ("BERRRRR-wyn?"), the economic development board of Berwyn has posted two very interesting sets of street panoramas: Roosevelt Road and Cermak Road. Makes me nostalgic for the old days when I drove Roosevelt as an expressway alternative for commuting between Chicago and Oak Brook. It's interesting to note how well-preserved the old storefront blocks are in Berwyn--it's one place that has been mercifully spared from urban renewal and big-box commercial development.
