   Arthur Miller's "Art Class "Overview of fascinating Sheridan Road through the North Shore, Part 2: South Winnetka through Lake Bluff

   Arthur Miller (https://www.linkedin.com/in/arthurhawksmiller/) took a tour group, in Chicago for a week from the Vero Beach art museum in Florida, they thought traveling this link in the Lake Michigan Circle tour was an unexpected highlight. The southern section, through south Winnetka, is mostly straight streets and right-angled turns along flat or very gently changing terrain. This continues the lower Chicago section of Sheridan Rd. at the north end of the 1950s extension of Lincoln Park and DS/LSD. The road was organized in the 1890s to facilitate military movement to and from the 1887-launched Fort Sheridan. It soon was a pleasure drive through the lakefront suburbs north of the city.
