Stir Your Soul ... CHICAGO GOT THE BID!


The official announcement was just made minutes ago by the U.S. Olympic Committee ... Chicago will be the U.S. city put forward for consideration to the International Olympic Commitee for hosting the 2016 Olympics. This is an unbelieveable opportunity for the entire city and state. We'll still have two years of proposals and hoops to jump through, but at least we beat out L.A.
We are a city of neighborhoods. Edgewater, Streeterville, Wicker Park, Hyde Park, Garfield Ridge, Bucktown, Garfield Park, Austin, Englewood, Lake Park, Canaryville, Auburn Gresham, Saughanash, Little Italty, Pilsen, Humboldt Park, Logan Square & West Lawn. Our histories are colorful, sometimes a little dirty; but strong and woven together to create this fabric of Midwestern life that is much more real than you'd find anywhere on either coast. Welcome to our 'hood ~ welcome to Chicago ~ welcome home!
