History

People from all across the northern suburbs stopped by for their amazing corned beef. Proesel finally changed Tessville's image when he renamed the village Lincolnwood in 1936. The agrarian population grew after the establishment of a Chicago & North Western Railway station in nearby Skokie in 1891 and the completion of the North Shore Channel in 1909, which made the easily flooded prairie land manageable. Lincolnwood is located at (42.005331, -87.734283) .

The history of Lincolnwood is described by the Encyclopedia of Chicago as follows: "Cook County, NW of the Loop. The Bryn Mawr Country Club (1919), the East Prairie Welfare Club, later to become the Lincolnwood Woman's Club (1927), the Lincolnwood Afternoon Club (1953), American Legion Post #1226 (1952), and the Lincolnwood Jewish Congregation (1958) helped create a sense of community in the village.
