The Grid is a set of imaginary lines that have been emblazoned onto the land itself. From Chicago streets to county roads, Isaac Newton’s coordinate grid is a fact of life for anyone who lives in Chicago Land. This is final episode in a four part series.

Who invented the Chicago city block? We just don't know, so we make some educated guesses. But we do know that Edward Brennan invented the Chicago address system!
