What to See

The iconic four silos and the building which is now used as Inverness Village Hall was once used as a lookout tower by notorious prohibition gangster Al Capone, as the facility provided a good view of the nearby railroad tracks.  Bootlegger Roger Touhy also used the building as a hideout and storage site.

The beautiful Inverness Golf Club was first established in the 1920s as a retreat for employees of the Cudahy Packing Company.  Besides its scenic views and challenging golf course, the classic club boasts gourmet dining, modern tennis courts, and a swimming facility.
