    The Joliet Iron and Steel Works was the second-largest steel mill in the US. In the 1980s, all activity stopped at the mill and in the 1990s, the county purchased the land. Now, there is a .7-mile trail that takes you through the ruins, with some information boards to explain what used to stand in the area.
