:wtf:

Do you know how long lake michigan stretches for? There are plenty of spots in Hyde Park and South Shore for a lot less money that have a far less obstructed view than that.

I personally enjoy a full unobstructed view from Navy Pier to Gary from my condo :win:
I know how far Lake Shore Drive stretches I can see the whole thing from here:

Directly across the street I can see into the windows of my neighbors. It's like living in The Sims. It's great.

Why the hell would I want to live in Hyde Park and Southshore? Who the hell wants to see Gary, IN?

Only reason why I'm ever down there is if I want to get a specialty cut. Thinking about getting that Juice fade and be Tupac in a business suit.

Seeing Indiana on a clear day ain't so bad. I live in the south loop. I got views too. Buckinham fountain, the marina, the museum complex, if I was home I'd be hearing the Lolla acts for free :manny:

:beli: at it taking 60-90 minutes to get downtown from the Southside.
I have no sense of distance/time. But it feels like it takes that long as you're clutching your iPhone staring down the wolves that take that train that far. Shiiit, even the CTA voice gets hella aggressive giving those instructions after a certain point.

"No gambling, gun bussin, smoking weed, or drinking 40's on the gat damn CTA!"

Yeah, cause the wolves of Kenwood, Beverly and Hyde Park aint shyt to fukk with...

How are you saying Chicago isn't segregated when you put the entire Southside in a big bad box?

And people that actually grew up in Chicago that say the city is segregated aren't just repeating boogie man stories our grandparents told us. It's the result of racist practices that resulted in whites and blacks living separately.

Chicago remains the most segregated big city in America, but it also has experienced some of the sharpest declines in segregation of those cities during the last 10 years, according to a national study released Monday.

The study, which examined U.S. Census Bureau data stretching back to 1890, found that cities are more integrated than at any time since 1910, and that “all-white neighborhoods are effectively extinct.”

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/31/chicago-most-segregated-c_n_1244098.html

The results of a Census data study conducted by the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research revealed that segregation in urban areas has gone down nationwide, with Chicago experiencing the second-largest declines. But the study, titled "The End of the Segregated Century," also found that Chicago remains the most racially segregated city in the country.

Despite these great advancements, the city is still the most segregated in the nation.

While anyone can get it anywhere in this city you're far more likely to get it down there. Being black, your chances jump like 300%. I've witnessed two shootings here and both of them were down on the Southside while working with Chicago Cares.

I don't want to live anywhere near that nonsense. Luckily, there's no rule that says I have to. If you want to, that's not my problem.
