Someone should email the local historical society to contact the alderman to get such a process going 😉

Was just going to point this out. Also 53rd frequently gets blocked off on Halloween but I don’t think that is ever a permit, just CPD.

Interestingly, the bridge isn’t listed as a contributing factor to the landmark status.

I was at a picnic this afternoon and the enthusiasm for kei trucks and the new slate cars is making me hopeful that we may actually get some more reasonable sized cars on the highway again.

Mine is pretty accurate to my first peer group, which was the Adirondacks. But I did purposefully change my accent in elementary school so Chicago kids would stop reading me.

Interesting! I didn’t have words for it, but I noticed they look like skate board ramps & know skaters use them so figured it must be doing some kind of fun physics.

The video shows the car’s bumper on the quay next to a downed light post so I think they did manage to jump the barricade at Chicago.

This is one part of Lake Shore Drive that actually has robust physical barriers separating LSD from LFT. While we’ll probably never know how the car got there, they were either driving directly on the LFT or launched over the barrier at Chicago Ave

The inverse of this is equivalent to everyone who owns a house in another state or municipality not being able to vote because they spend three+ months a year away. Also, students not being able to vote at school ignores how difficult it is to either travel home or get a mail in ballot many places

At this point, I think a note tacked to the building would be the most helpful solution.

In Milan they had a card reader thing for random enforcement. You could tap your phone or card against it.

brigidmania.bsky.social @brigidmania.bsky.social · 25/07/2026
Also, couldn’t they do a random sampling? I’m no statistician, but it seems like doing fewer checks per bus/train over more busses/train would be better? And to prevent bias, management could layout the seats to check every morning.

I think so! We made paper maps.

Also, if the pipe is leaking, you probably want to get the water source turned off asap which requires a person either way. Also, eek, I’m sorry.

Earlier, I think. It was the front half that got lopped off because it was too closer to the sidewalk.

brigidmania.bsky.social @brigidmania.bsky.social · 18/07/2026
Hi, here is its earlier info: Originally built out to the sidewalk, which violated the zoning laws and the front half had to be removed. 6 flat. It’s from the map/tour of Rosalie Villas I made ~decade ago.

It is truly an amazing show, I went for a bit of the opening. Like honestly, one of the best shows I’ve seen all year.

Wow, is the complete lack of air quality monitoring on the south east side because the city has no monitors there or because they haven’t been added to IQ air?

Maybe once on Northerly Island? But I spend most of my time on this side of the lake at the Point and it has never happened to me there.

This happens frequently on the beach in West Michigan where it connects to the cell tower in Wisconsin or Illinois. It seems to happen on beaches that have high sand dunes and are in less populated areas. I’ve had it happen in Muskegon, Holland, etc

No, but I haven’t been able to figure out kWh pricing to compare. I think our electric bill is cheap for size of apartment/ number of people but I wanted to compare.

Comed pricing drives me insane. Is there a place that tells me the cost at a certain time or for the next few hours?
