Before Lincoln Park cemented its trendy reputation; plenty of odd and unruly history managed to settle into its foundation. A Viking ship; mob henchmen and ladies of the evening all took up residence in the same part of town where Dwight L. Moody went from selling soles to saving souls. Thanks to a Confederate ferryboat crewman; many of Lincoln�s personal effects belong to the neighborhood named after him. Patrick Butler uncovers Lincoln Park�s forgotten contributions to Chicago�s heritage; from the �Pleasure Wheel� on Navy Pier to the city�s cycling craze.
