Reviews
"People should be aware that old building pose many threats. Especially this one, which gave not just my cat, but now me leukemia."
"Unique experience. Exhibits and artifacts are captivating. Nice bathroom and layout of the museum. In an old fire house...Must see!"
"I stopped in advance of the CAC Open House Chicago weekend, as I was assigned to be District Manager of Edgewater and Andersonville. I live 70 miles south. Wow everyone at this place owns a wealth of historical knowledge and they are the wheels that help us cogs be relevant. It is well worth your time to explore the archives about the rich history of Edgewater. Clearly these folks are proud of the community; they are the community."
"This museum is really cool and informative. I learned a lot about my neighborhood. I’m taking two stars off because one of the volunteers mocked me for a hoodie I was wearing."
"Volunteer here and exhibits are always worth a visit. Only open Saturday and Sunday 1-4pm."
