One hundred years ago (when Bisnow was engraved in papyrus),immigrants came to Chicago to work in the South Side Stockyards.That same square mile between Halsted, Ashland, Pershing, and 47this still providing jobs, only now in distribution and manufacturing. Youknow it as the Stockyards Industrial Park, home to 80 companies,and an example of urban revitalization. Back of the Yards BusinessCouncil's Craig Chico and Martha Jungenberg and Matanky Realty'sJames Matanky (also commissioner of the area), tell us 70 buildingshave gone up since the late '80s, occupied by companies such asGourmet Kitchens, Gypsum Supply Co, Tyson, GE Zenith Controls,HydroAire and Testa Produce.http://www.bisnow.com/chicago_commercial_real_
