In 1988 it was known as Midwest Exchange, 312-447-38XX and hosted Apple II releases. In November 1989, the +312 area-code split between 708 and 312. At various times called Midwest File Exchange (1992) and Park Central (november 1992-1995).

It ran as a distsite for Fairlight in november-december 1992, for Sinister in january 1993, for RISC between february 1993 (6 nodes) and february 1995 (15 nodes), for TRSI in march 1994 (9 nodes), for SCUM in september 1994 (9 nodes), for Genesis in april of 1995, for Hybrid in september 1995 (16 nodes) and for Paradigm in november 1996 (15 nodes).

1995, Feb. 15 nodes and "15+ gigs space for warez"

Unsure of the 1994 B/┤D (BAD) US-CENTRAL HQ affil.
Guessing the Prophecy/PCY affil is the HPAV group, as a few user affils on this 1995 log capture already had game/courier/util.
