Go Cubs! From your apartment in the heart of hot Wrigleyville or at the north end of lovely Lake View, fall out of bed on a summer day and stroll a couple of blocks to Wrigley Field for a game. After the win, hit the Cubby Bear or other watering holes or restaurants on Clark Street. Shop till you drop on Clark and Diversey. Walk or ride a bike to the beach. Get a movie fix at the glorious Music Box movie palace, take in live music at the Vic Theater, browse the coffeehouses, pubs and eclectic stores on Southport Avenue, Addison and Sheffield. Experience a broad range of people, restaurants and churches. Walk amid trees and view details of classic Chicago architecture. If you must fit in work around all this play, grab a near-by CTA "L" (elevated) train from stations at Irving Park or Addison or hop on one of the many CTA buses that run along Addison and Irving park and head downtown to the Loop. And don't forget: street parking is actually possible in the north Lakeview area!
