Great job by the Chicago PD. God bless them for protecting our city from those who wish to do harm. May the city and especially the media give them praise for their work during NATO. Chicago PD has a great leader in Garry McCarthy.

Anyone have any idea what's opening at 608 W Barry? It's at the corner of Barry & Broadway, where the tiny Sushi Sakura, Sushi Blossom, and Sushi Cherry had operated over the years.

Peeking in today - it's been renovated & there's a full kitchen in there now, with a window to place an order, and not room for much else inside.

I checked permits and did not find anything - anyone have any ideas about what the new place on the block will be?

Gahhhhhh. I am so tired of the petty crap that happens to my property. I try very hard to keep the front of my house looking nice. Why do people have to rip plants out of the ground/planter or destroy retaining walls? Clearly break-ins or other more intrusive crimes are worse, but at least I can understand why someone would want a computer or cell phone. I don't get the thrill of ruining someone's landscaping. I don't know if it will help, but I guess I have to move forward with installing cameras.

Did anyone else hear a loud noise like a plane flying way too close to the buildings by Lake Shore & Irving Park area? It freaked me out so bad... now I just hear helicopters hovering around in the area... :-/

Anyone have positive experiences either selling/donating used books in Chicago? I'll be moving and would love to pass much of my book collection on to a new home.

All of a sudden I'm seeing a very beautiful cat prowling around in the "secret garden" behind the two Waveland 6 flats.
Heretofore this has been a "no predator" area where birds and other creatures could live in peace - now not so much.
Is this your cat? If so, if you insist on putting her/him out prowling (which can be dangerous as there may be toxins in the yards) please put a pop collar with a bell around his or her neck to give the birds, rabbits and squirrels a break.
Thanks very much.

Just curious about the new bike racks you see through Lakeview. They are cool colors and in the shape of a bike. I like them and just wondering if they were purchased by the city or some how locally. Any comments would be helpful?

Had our garage broken into last night in the alley behind Nuts on Clark. Window smashed, missing an iPod.

Check your doors to make sure they're locked, people.

Hey everyone! I am looking for a room to rent starting June 1st. I am preferably looking for a 1 year lease. I would love it to be close to the red line in wrigleyville, lincoln park, belmont/boystown, lakeview, south loop, or anywhere around there. I really need a place so let me know if you know of any! Thanks!

Tom Tunney, the Cubs and many volunteers cleaned up and repainted the underpass to the park at Rosco. It looked great. Well it didn't take long for someone(s) to deface the walls with graffiti. Shame on them.

2 years old. all black. orange collar. RFID chip. named Mongo. yellow eyes. long and sleek, short-haired

Does anyone know what can be done about the housing development at Montrose Harbor?

The residents except for retrieving free food do nothing but flutter and squack among themselves.

They have a beutiful waterfront view at taxpayer expense yet do nothing to upkeep the property.

Wher is the OUTRAGE!

Rahm, all you do is bark and whine- meanwhile we have to look at crap like this:

The city lacks greenspace and with all your millions and your connections you can't even replace dead trees!!

DO YOUR JOB ALREADY!
