In the JT Farrell books, set in the early 1900's (definitely before this photo in 1946) Xavier is located around the 49th Street Neighborhood.<BR/><BR/>JBPJBPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17015371340244747070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9382936.post-61886798835581712102008-01-02T12:34:00.000-06:002008-01-02T12:34:00.000-06:00JBP,Hales Franciscan is on Cottage Grove around 47...JBP,<BR/><BR/>Hales Franciscan is on Cottage Grove around 47th St. I can't picture what's currently at 29th and Wabash.<BR/><BR/>-MJMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
