The Peterson-Pulaski Industrial Corridor, a 47-year-old business and employment zone on the northwest side of Chicago, is home to 22 small to midsized companies that collectively employ approximately 1,900 people. The irregularly shaped parcel runs from Bryn Mawr Avenue on the south to Devon Avenue on the north, and from Kostner Avenue on the west to Pulaski Road on the east, generally paralleling the Union Pacific Railroad right-of-way. Virtually the entire area is currently zoned for manufacturing.
