Lifelong suburbanite, now in South Lakeview.

Multi vehicle accident Lincoln North of Berwyn

Last night, as I was getting ready to get off work around 11, the police had northbound Lincoln blocked north of Berwyn due to, what a co-worker said was a 3 vehicle accident with one car into a building. I saw one ambulance probably coming from the accident scene around quarter to 11 or so, and Lincoln was finally re-opened around 11:15 or so. Does anyone know what exactly happened?

Oh Rogers Park, how I hate to love you.

Albany Park Cyclists?

Hi all,

I'm considering a move from Roger's Park to the Albany Park area, near Argyle and Albany. I'll spare you the typical "what is the area like?" questions, and ask instead, "anyone out there an avid cyclist?" I'd like to get to know more cyclists in the area since I'll be further away from the lake (which is something I'm familiar with and could do with my eyes closed - but don't, obvi :) ). A new route or riding buddy is always welcome.

Thanks!

    Albany Park is pretty much the center for cycling around Chicago.

    To the east is the North Shore Channel trail which takes you up to Evanston and then on to the Green Bay Trail.

    To the west is the North Branch Trail which takes you up to the Botanic Garden....

    Albany Park is pretty much the center for cycling around Chicago.

    To the east is the North Shore Channel trail which takes you up to Evanston and then on to the Green Bay Trail.

    To the west is the North Branch Trail which takes you up to the Botanic Garden. You can got east to the Green Bay Trail or west to the Skokie Valley Trail.

    Only a short way south to Elston, and you can take a marked bike lane to downtown.

    Along Lawrence, from Western to a little past Milwaukee is another marked bike lane, with a short distance of "sharrows" instead of a lane between the river and Central Park.

    To the lakefront, take Wilson to Lincoln, then a block or two south to Sunnyside one-way east to almost the lake front, jumping up to Lawrence or down to Montrose to finish the trip. Or just take the bike lane on Lawrence to Lincoln and then south to Sunnyside.

    No matter where you want to go in Chicago, Albany Park is the best place to start from.

  • AlbanyParker, that's a nice route. Alternatively, you could also use Sheridan Road instead of Green Bay Road. And another +1 for Iron Cycles!

Bunny rabbits eating my plants

There are a lot of bunny rabbits in my yard, both full size and youths, and, while adorable, they eat my flowers and perennials. Anyone else in the area have the same problem? Advice on keeping them out? Or, barring that, are there certain plant species that do well around here that the rabbits won't eat?

  • People used human hair to deter deer at a community garden I used to belong to, but it soon became apparent that it didn't deter the deer at all. In fact, some deer started coming into the garden to graze while people were there. They had to build a higher fence.

  • Rob at Kedzie and Foster New to the neighborhood

    Saw a bunch of bunnies today on my street. You know what they say about how they (over) breed. NIce to know that if I get really hungry - just kiddin.'

From Is it only me? Confusion on NATO and staying home in the Loop during the Summit:

"We would appreciate anyone with some sound advice to please share what they might know as far as safely staying in condo at Madison & State. We were planning to stock up on food and stay in. Does this sound okay to do? Sarcasm & judgement not welcome please."
