West and southwest, 1950s onward

After Federal Street.

During the 1940s and after, the City of Chicago uprooted the Sassanesi and African American families of the Federal Street enclave — through the Robert Taylor Homes public housing project and the Dan Ryan Expressway. The migration moved due west and southwest.
