Let's take a look at the history of our community, Harvey, Illinois. Harvey, located in southern Cook County about 30 miles south of Chicago, has a rich history. Many famous people have been linked to our city. We will look at the history of our community, the people who helped build our city, and some of the "claims to fame" of our city.

Additionally, we will compare the Harvey of the 1900's with the Harvey of today. Let's travel back through time together to learn what Harvey was like 100 years ago in the early 1900's and predict what our city might be like in the year 2100.
