A side trip to a mansion off Highway 41

 

Just a short Highway 41 Streetview trek advance this time.


The unremarkable intersection here is Half Day Road. However, just a short jaunt to the west down Half Day Road leads to Point Drive, where a man by the name of Michael Jordan has a small mansion.




This is as close as StreetView can get to the Jordan mansion. He's been trying to sell it, but as of May 2020, he hadn't.  Bet there aren't a lot of buyers in this price range.  If you cruise around the circle as much as possible, you'll see a small rectangular area that's blurred out.  That's the gate of the drive with the number "23" on it.  If you go to Google Maps, and then satellite view, you can see the whole layout of the place.  It's great, but did he really want it that close to the railroad tracks?




Cruising by the Land Rover and BMW of Lake Bluff. Clearly this is a somewhat upper crust section of Chicagoland.




On Highway 41 north of Buckley Road.



Now that we've gotten this far, there's not much of Illinois left.
