Notes:

  • Approximately 75% of Peoria’s streets were renumbered in 1955-56. I have cross-checked pre-1955 addresses as closely as possible to match them to their current numbers, but there may be a few stragglers that are slightly “off.”
  • Ben Schwartz and Buehler’s stores post-1985 may not be 100% complete; their city directory listings during these years were inconsistent.
