Description
The Chicago Skyway is a toll road in southeast Chicago, running diagonally from I-94 to the Indiana state line. It continues as the Indiana Toll Road on the Indiana side. Both toll roads carry the Interstate 90 designation, and further east the Indiana Toll Road picks up the I-80 designation as well. The Indiana Toll road also offers exits to I-65 and I-94. In Chicago, along South Cornell Avenue in Jackson Park, a sign has stood for decades directing travelers to both of the toll roads and the Interstates that follow them. It points travelers onto Stony Island Avenue, which proceeds due south from that point until it intersects the Chicago Skyway. Although the sign stands on Illinois soil, the Interstate shields that appear on it bear the state name of Indiana, which is quite unusual.
We’ve recreated the To Chicago Skyway and Indiana Toll Road sign for your enjoyment at at home. Our replica is made using photos of the original sign as reference. Every detail of the sign’s layout is meticulously placed to match the original sign. It accurately uses the federal standard highway fonts. The original sign, though smaller than freeway-scale signs, is still quite a bit larger than is comfortable to use as a home decor item. Our scaled-down replicas make it easy to decorate your office, man cave, garage, bar, or any other room, while leaving the original in place for others’ enjoyment.
Our To Chicago Skyway and Indiana Toll Road sign is printed in Illinois on heavy 14-gauge American steel. With a glossy, non-reflective finish that can withstand even a blustery Chicago winter, your sign will look great indoors or outdoors. We’ve even included mounting holes to make installation easy, no matter where you put it. Available sizes include:
- 16 in. × 8 in.
- 24 in. × 12 in.
- 36 in. × 18 in.
- 48 in. × 24 in.
- 72 in. × 36 in.
