Great video. Your agency actually helped me purchase my condo on Hawthorne. Just a few thoughts: The owner of Stella‘s recently purchased the bagel across the street, so we’re worried that he’s going to close one of them, we’re thinking Stella‘s. They’ve already cut back the hours. The area I’d say west of Clark and south of Belmont feels a bit desolate, would be great if more commercial places or restaurants could move there. You should bring the cupcake place back, really the only option is Chicago sugar daddy, which is good, but options If you live along Lakeshore, I would not consider the train. Lots of awesome express buses to get you downtown which will be right outside your door and will make up the time you’ll need to walk the quarter of a mile or so to Belmont/Addison. In the eastern part of the neighborhood, it’s very densely populated, also the sidewalks are extremely narrow, especially on Broadway and Clark. So if you walk a dog or have a stroller may have to plan a bit. The annoyance theater on Belmont, arguably is what second city is to stand up except for improv. Legendary place. Coda di Volpe, and coalfire, I think our two of only maybe five pizza places in the city that have officially been given the stamp of approval by this Neapolitan Pizza council… I don’t know what it’s called, you can look it up. But it’s somewhat prestigious in the Pizza world. It’s interesting how it slows down once you get west of Racine, feels more like Roscoe Village. Don’t be scared off by Swift and Sons, it’s their tavern, which is the more casual outpost compared to the formal steakhouse in the West Loop. Sorry for the long comment, great video as always, really like this series
Hey Preston, Thank you for the detailed comment! Glad you live and love the neighborhood! It has always had a sweet spot in my heart! Seriously one of my favorites. You made all really great points! Thank you for that!
That is amazing! Where did you move in the interim? We would love to help you move back to the neighborhood! If you want to send us a DM on instagram our handle is @samuelciochon.
Good morning! Thank you for your prompt response 😎 I am in Southern California now and plan on visiting by Spring to look around. I am originally from the South side and have lived in Little Italy before. @@SamuelCiochon
@@cherylb3676 Of course! My family actually lives in Southern California. What took you out there? Little Italy is also very fun! I went to UIC, so super familiar with the area. :)
Good video! May be moving to Chicago next year - would love more info as the time gets closer to the move.
Thank you so much for the compliment! Lakeview is an amazing neighborhood. Appreciate that you emailed me to connect.
