Pulaski Road is a major north-south thoroughfare in the city of Chicago, at 4000 W., or exactly five miles west of State Street. It is named after revolutionary war hero Casimir Pulaski. It still retains its former name, Crawford Avenue, in the north suburbs of Lincolnwood and Skokie, north of Devon Avenue (6400 N).
