Topic: Chicago favorite spots? | |
---|---|
I plan to live in Chicago one day for my future career.
What are your favorite spots in Chicago? What are the "must-see" places? Museums, malls, restaurants, dance studios, martial art locations? Note: I LOVE museums! |

ohhhh! Angel, I'm going to google for their website. I enjoy huge museums
Where do you go to hang out? What malls do you like? Where you can ACTUALLY buy stuff? I've been to plenty of malls, where you walk out empty handed LOL. It "looks" nice but nothing to buy |

Do you like Reggae? There's a club right across the street from Wrigley Field called the Wild Hare. It's a very diverse club. I've heard some young ppl say the crowd is too old.
The crowd does tend to be a little older but I'm old so I fint right in. Malls, lets see, there is Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg. Great mall, you'd love it. So many cool stores. Scaumburg is great with lots of stores, clubs and restaurants. Chicago is a great place. |

Bored, do you have WGN-TV on your cable system?
|
|
|
|
I'm illiterate when it comes to technological terms
I hope I have that cable |
|
|
|
WGN is a Chicago station that is carried by a lot of cable providers all over the country, and they have a lot of good local information on their newscasts.

From Wiki:
Chicago is the largest city in the state of Illinois, the largest in the Midwest, and, with a population of nearly 3 million people, is the third-most populous city in the United States. The Chicago metropolitan area (commonly referred to as Chicagoland) has a population of over 9.5 million people in Illinois, Wisconsin and Indiana, making it also the third largest metropolitan area in the US. |

as far as size wise I told a friend that the way to tell if you are in a Chicago suburb or a Milwaukee suburb is when you see the sigh " Welcome to Wisconsin " they have both grown so much it is like Minneapolis -St paul
