| Description | Proposed boulevard to connect the north and south sides of the river; view looking north from Washington Street. The boulevard is raised to allow free flow of east-and-west teaming traffic under it, and both Michigan Avenue and Beaubien Court are raised to the boulevard level. The raised portion through its entire length, from Randolph Street to Indiana Street, extends from building line to building line. It is approached from the cross streets by inclined roadways or ramps; these may be changed to the east side or omitted. Plan of Chicago by Daniel Hudson Burnham and Edward H. Bennett.
