You are standing in an area where the Illinois and Michigan Canal once ran. When flooding became a problem in Chicago, the Metropolitain Sanitary District build a new canal just to the north of the old one. If you look to the North, you can see the new canal.
Turn around and look to the South, and you see Interstate 55. Part of the old canal was filled in so I-55 could be built in this area. You are standing in the old canal area at the posted coordinates.
