Queen of Haven Orphanage Opens
No rating
Year 1905
The Missionary sisters of the Sacred Heart open the Queen of Heaven Orphanage designed by Mother Cabrini at 48th and Federal. Until 1967, it was home to hundreds of girls each year before foster care replaced the orphanage. Also by this time, a number of street car routes are present throughout the Highlands neighborhood. No location in the neighborhood is more than three blocks from one of the trolley routes.
