The funky urban melange of Lincoln Square. All types of folks in a nice little neighborhood, combining single family homes, dense courtyard walkups, family storefronts, and anchored by the Old Town School of Folk Music on Lincoln Ave. Nothing like seeing a punk looking dude, with piercings and tons of skin art, pushing a baby buggy.

The Harold Washington Library Center. Despite having lived in Chicago for eight years, I’d never visited this library. Stoopid! Interesting architecture on the outside, and very nice on the inside. Free Wi-Fi and you can even use a desktop computer as an out of state guest.
