Currently Wasz's Marine on corner of Rt 173 and Lake Ave. That Lake Ave across the pic, rt 173 would be just to the left of the picture.
Picture is looking west.

Hi Jeff! Thank you for sharing your memories of Wasz's Marine at Rt 173 and Lake Ave in the photo. It's fascinating to see how places have changed over time! Do you have any other recollections of the area during that time? We'd love to hear more about the community, events, or any farming practices. Feel free to share any additional details that could help us learn more about the photo.

I'd like to help out and share but I've only lived in Antioch less then 20 years. I too am curious about the past, thus my perusal of the old pictures on this sight. Occasionally I recognize the buildings and can just note where it is and/or whats there now (such as the case with this photo) hopefully helping others out.

42178 North Lake Avenue, Antioch, Illinois. View is looking north. Since this photo was taken, 51 years ago, this building has been rebuilt into a 2-story home.
