Description

Maxwell street, showing the people living in Maxworks, 717 W. Maxwell Street. They are the last ones left before the area is taken over by the University of Illinois at Chicago. The long-running Sunday Maxwell St. Market was moved a few years ago to Canal Street. The final step for UIC is moving out the remaining residents and razing the buildingsLewis "Bubble" Tucker has no money for tobacco, so he smokes wax paper, which creates a lot of smoke. He has lived in his car for about 15 years.CITY 2000: images from the book
