Good to hear OK. This is not the Chicago I moved to in

early 1994. I lived in Lincoln Park and drove around for 7 years. Walked around Twin Anchors at night all the time. One person had an incident in 7 years (held up on Belden at night). I worked in River North all that time and had no issues. Drove home on Larrabee through Cabrini Green daily. People walked down Chicago daily from the Borwn Line without incident.

It was only this past weekend that I read about "multiple car jackings a day" happening in Wicker Park and Ukranian Village. Now I read your post, which brings it to life even more.

This is sad.

P.S. A long time NDN poster I know who sold his Wilmette house and moved to the city a few years ago is giving up and leaving his Gold Coast place. This is just not acceptable.
