Entrance to Union Stock Yards, Chicago, Illinois, USA, 1909.
Entrance to Union Stock Yards, Chicago, Illinois, USA, 1909. Postcard. The white stone building has two towers on either end of the archway and a grey roof. The livestock pens are on the right and there is livestock and a horse-drawn cart in front of the entrance. Because of its status as a major rail hub between the Great Plains and the major markets on the East Coast, Chicago became the centre of the American livestock and meat industry.
