The home on Chicago's Northwest Side where Walt Disney was born in 1901 has been sold to a California couple who aim to make it a historical site, museum and community resource.
Situated in the working-class and now mostly Hispanic neighborhood of Hermosa, the 1600-square-foot two-flat at 2156 N. Tripp Ave. has been on the market for several years, its history largely unknown, according to Ald. Rey Colon, 35th.
