This mark is probably part of a survey of the Village of Skokie. It includes a couple dozen or so marks of high accuracy that made it into the NGS database, as well as these smaller, less protected, and presumably less accurate marks that dot the village.
This mark is at the northwest corner of the intersection of Fargo Ave and Niles Center Rd. It is located just SE of a large light pole and is embedded in the concrete sidewalk.
