Description |
This is a photograph of the aftermath of the 1967 Oak Lawn tornado. It features a view of the clean up at the Anderson home located at 9400 S. Major Avenue. Most of the debris has been cleared. The foundation is visible. A dumpster and a pile of debris wait at the curb. A car with broken windows is still parked behind the home on the southeast corner of 94th Street and Massasoit Avenue. In the background, the backs of heavily damaged homes, all with missing roofs, in the 9400 block of Massasoit are visible. In the far background, a crane can be seen overhead, possibly working at the heavily damaged Suburban Transit Company bus depot located at 5800 W. 95t Street. |
