Stockyards

The Stockyards are one of the City Hotspots available in The Ward.

History
Known as "Packing Town" located in a large stretch on the South side, the Stockyards were founded in 1863 and grew to 130 miles of track producing 90% of the meat consumed in the U.S. by 1928. In 1919, when workers went on a strike for better pay, a race riot broke out. Police killed 4 while attempting to get the crowd under control.
