This is a joke, but also not a joke. Everything in this post used to be in or on a Chicago building, but now sits in the City Museum. And I'm not even getting into their Louis Sullivan collection, which is beyond belief.

The entire Chicago Architecture Posting Guild should descend on St Louis en masse to repatriate our sacred artifacts. Many are being flaunted within a stronghold they call the City Museum.

My coworkers mad at me over my boss ‘throwing me under the bus’ in a meeting last week but I don’t even remember it. Why are you more mad than me I don’t give a hoot

One of my favorite midcentury buildings in Chicagoland is this unusual storefront + house in Evergreen Park, constructed in the early '60s as a personal project of real estate developer Wayne Bekta. His wife's flower shop faced 95th Street, with the family home attached behind it as one structure.

A photo of a big midcentury building clad in cream-colored brick and gray stone bricks. Facing a commercial street is a big angular storefront with floor to ceiling glass windows and business signage that says "Evergreen Door & Window", while facing a side street the angled roofline reaches its lowest point and then rises back up along the roofline of a split-level '60s ranch house.A photo of the commercial side of the structure, featuring neon signs for windows, doors, awnings, and siding and various displays visible through two story tall windows.A photo of the side of the building shows a clear transition from the commercial to residential portion of the structure, both the same height but the house featuring an actual upper floor and move private windows than the storefront. The garage is open, and an old red truck sits inside the opening.

First thing on my YouTube algo this morning is a two hour interview with Hunter Biden and Nick Fuentes. I have so many questions none of which would be answered in those two hours. What are we doing anymore

Decent one bedroom co-op on the market in Edgewater. A living room, a dining room, and an office plus a bedroom. $200K. $520/month hoa which includes the heat water and property taxes. A block from the Bryn Mawr stop and walking distance to Uptown, Andersonville and the beach.
