Control  Tower






CONTROL TOWER at Pal-Waukee was built by George Priester in 1967. Staffed by the Federal Aviation Administration, it marked an important step in the development of the airport.











Allison's Bridge







ALLISON'S BRIDGE crossed the Des Plaines River at a point just below where Palatine Rd. is now. It was built by the Allisons to provide easy passage from their house and barns on the east side of the river to the fields and pasture land on the west. Later it became a public thoroughfare.
