Let's meet up at the entrance of the museum to experience Elmhurst History Museum's latest exhibit: This original exhibit will showcase digitally enhanced photographs of iconic Elmhurst buildings, street views, parks, and transportation routes using images from the museum's permanent archives. These historical images will be paired with their contemporary counterparts, allowing guests to observe the evolution of our hometown's history through changing architecture, transportation, green spaces, and business developments. The exhibit will feature 25 framed photographs and video footage from the museum's archives, including the earliest filmed footage of Elmhurst from a "drive around town" in 1929, recreated in 1990.
