The apartment is located three blocks from the heart of Wicker Park, where you can shop books, recycled fashion, hipster brand names (Dr Martens, Levis, Urban Outfitters, etc), see comedy/music (North Bar, Subterranean) or grab a drink/food at one of the many bars or restaurants. To explore further afield, grab the Blue line @ Damen and you'll be in the middle of the city for the museums, Millennium Park and skyscrapers in under 10 minutes. The place is uber comfortable, Catherine is a great host and provides everything you will need for your stay in Chicago.
