Evening Republican, Volume 14, Number 185, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 5 August 1910 — Interurban to Build Spur From Cedar Lake to Crown Point. [ARTICLE]

Interurban to Build Spur From Cedar Lake to Crown Point.

A dispatch from Crown Point has the following to say of the interurban that is to pass through there: It is said by those in a position to know that the Indiana Northwestern Traction company are contemplating the building of a spur from their main line running around Cedar Lake to this place, and that work on the same will be commenced immediately on the pro- 5 ject in conjunction with the construction work on the main line. With the franchises beinghobtained in the towns and cities along the route of the Northwestern, it is evident the company means business, and Crown Point will be glad of the opportunity to secure this connection, as it is a roundabout way to,Hammond and possibly a stepping stone to better transportation facilities than the town now affords.
