History

The city of Gary was founded in 1906 by the United States Steel Corporation. It was named after lawyer Elbert Henry Gary, who was one of the founders of U.S. Steel.

During the 1950s, Gary was at its peak population of around 178,000 residents. However, Gary fell into decline in the 1960s as the steel industry contracted and businesses and residents moved to the suburbs.
