Combined Graph record U-02001 · provenance: canonical master store (CSV), record CTL-P-0558. Master record source: CTL seed 2026-10-16 — UNVERIFIED, verify before public citation.
The Honorary Chicago catalog post establishes: honorary sign 'Robert Borgstrom Way'; location Kinzie Street at Rush Street, near the main dock for Wendella Boats at the Chicago River (Magnificent Mile). The post (published July 14, 2017) states no approval date (fetched in full 2026-10-17). Wave-16 update (2026-10-17): a genuine search of Chicago Councilmatic (full-name search plus surname 'honorary street' fallback), conducted via live browser on 2026-10-17, found no enacted honorary designation record for this name — both the full-name search and the surname fallback returned 0 results. Chicago Legistar was unreachable that day (soft block: 'Invalid parameters!'), so the ordinance-record route remains open if a record surfaces there. Stamp remains STRONG EVIDENCE on the Honorary Chicago catalog basis.
