Roundhouse and Railyards
As the Midwest's railroads expanded in the late 1800s, Evanston became a key stop along the route, and the Roundhouse was a vital part of this network. It provided job opportunities and boosted the local economy, making Evanston a bustling railroad town. Over the years, the Roundhouse underwent several renovations, and today, it stands as a testament to the city's industrial heritage.
Adjacent to the Roundhouse is the Railyards Historical Park, which was transformed from an old freight yard into a beautiful green space that preserves the area's railroad history. Visitors can explore the park's numerous interpretive signs and displays, which showcase the impact of the railroads on Evanston's growth. Roundhouse and Railyards are a must-visit for anyone interested in learning about the industrial and cultural history of Evanston and the Midwest.
