The village of Arlington Heights--beginning with the diligence and
fortitude of William Dunton--is replete with stories of bitter
hardship and exalting triumph. Originally named Dunton after its
founder, the village's success was sealed by canny deal-making that
brought a railroad through the middle of town. As the state of
Illinois boomed, the village on the tracks flourished with
agriculture, industry, transportation and an expanding population.
From the influx of immigrants and industry to the resurrection of
the Arlington Park Racetrack, read the compelling history of a
small agricultural village's transformation into a thriving
commercial district and the unique way in which its small-town
charm and industrious spirit coexist.
