Discover Melrose Park
According to the Encyclopedia of Chicago, residents of an unincorporated part of Proviso Township voted in 1882 to form their own municipality, called simply Melrose until 1893, when "Park" was added and the population began to grow steadily. The first Italian Americans arrived in 1888. On March 28, 1920, the F4 Palm Sunday tornado cut a path through the village, killing ten people and destroying the Sacred Heart Church and its convent.
More about Melrose Park
Around 1900 population growth leveled off and industry stagnated, and only after World War I did the economy recover as manufacturers moved in, drawn by the village's location beside the Proviso freight yards. More companies came after World War II, among them Zenith Electronics, Alberto-Culver, Jewel and International Harvester, later Navistar, whose plant closed in 2021 and was demolished. In the late 1990s the village made major improvements to attract more commerce, beginning with new street signs. Sources Wikipedia: Melrose Park, Illinois
