From Humble Beginnings to Larger Illinois City

Only eight miles south of the Wisconsin border on the shores of Lake Michigan lies the city of Waukegan. The community is one of the oldest in Illinois, dating back to the early 1800’s when it was known as “Little Fort”. The name Waukegan was derived from a Potawatomi word meaning “little fort” and became the official name in 1849.

Early Waukegan, a Manufacturing City

As a lake port, much of the early economy focused around shipping agriculture goods to the larger city of Chicago by way of Lake Michigan. However, when the railroad came to the town in 1855, interest was turned to manufacturing.

In the late 1800’s and all the way through the middle of the twentieth century, Waukegan was for the most part a manufacturing and industrial city. With the railroad and lake port, it was for the time an ideal place for industry. But not unlike many other Midwest and U.S. cities, the manufacturing industries all but were gone from Waukegan by the turn of the century.

Recent Revitalization of Downtown Waukegan, IL

With manufacturing and industries either closing or moving to cheaper labor markets, Waukegan has looked to new ways to support its growing population. With two larger cities on either side of it to the north, Milwaukee, and to the south, Chicago, it hopes to make itself a desirable place to live to attract workers from both cities.

The plan involves what would be a multi-million dollar facelift for the city. With over 3 miles of lakefront and two harbors, the future of Waukegan could easily be tied with recreational boating and lavish lake parks. There are plans for waterfront condominiums and other residential spaces to bring interest to those wishing to live outside of the larger cities. The downtown is scheduled to have old buildings restored as well. The renovation already started with the refurbishment of the Genesee Theatre in the downtown area after it had been closed for more then a decade. The theatre reopened in 2003, drawing people from miles around.

The area has big plans, all stemming from the local government. The planners for the City of Waukegan are making process towards their goal. For information on planning as well as other city services and historical information, the city website has much to offer at www.waukeganweb.net. You can also visit the city hall at:

Jonathan Rosenfeld was professionally objective, timely, and knowledgeable. Also, his advice was extremely effective regarding my case. In addition, Jonathan was understanding and patient pertaining to any of my questions or concerns. I was very happy with the end result and I highly recommend Jonathan Rosenfeld. Michonne Proulx

Extremely impressed with this law firm. They took control of a bad motorcycle crash that left my uncle seriously injured. Without any guarantee of a financial recovery, they went out and hired accident investigators and engineers to help prove how the accident happened. I am grateful that they worked on a contingency fee basis as there was no way we could have paid for these services on our own. Ethan Armstrong

This lawyer really helped me get compensation for my motorcycle accident case. I know there is no way that I could have gotten anywhere near the amount that Mr. Rosenfeld was able to get to settle my case. Thank you. Daniel Kaim

Jonathan helped my family heal and get compensation after our child was suffered a life threatening injury at daycare. He was sympathetic and in constant contact with us letting us know all he knew every step of the way. We were so blessed to find Jonathan! Giulia

Jonathan did a great job helping my family navigate through a lengthy lawsuit involving my grandmother's death in a nursing home. Through every step of the case, Jonathan kept my family informed of the progression of the case. Although our case eventually settled at a mediation, I really was impressed at how well prepared Jonathan was to take the case to trial. Lisa
