Web page with details on what Chatham offers...

i was surfing the net and came across Dreamtown.com's Chatham page.

It's very detailed, with all kinds of stats and history.

Some samples of what's on the page:
It's hard to fathom that the area of Chatham was once a place so swampy that it was referred to as "Mud Lake," but such was the case. The land was mostly used for hunting and some farming was done to the west, but all in all, Chatham's beginnings were rather boggy and uninviting to residents for many years.

Things started to take a turn for the better in the 1860s and '70s when railroad tracks were laid nearby.
This info also includes some write-ups on stores i have seen, but not actually been inside:
New Boutique Africa (213 E 75th St, 773-488-9755) and Raggs (7943 S King Dr, 773-783-8303) are places we suggest scoping out that sell decorative arts and unique home furnishings
