Reconstruction of Fullerton Parkway Bridge Begins March 19th

Mar 8, 2012 by

The Chicago Department of Transportation is reconstructing the Fullerton Parkway Bridge starting March 19, 2012 and ending in December, 2012. This project has been planned for years, and  was approved by the Plan Commission in May 2011. Traffic will remain open in both directions, but with only one lane each way. We suggest that you plan to take alternate routes.

Please join Alderman Smith at a community meeting attended by representatives from CDOT, the Park District, the Lincoln Park Advisory Committee and Friends of the Park.

Travel & Leisure Names D.O.C. One of America’s Best Wine Bars

Mar 8, 2012 by

           From Travel & Leisure

D.O.C. Wine Bar: Chicago    2602 North Clark Street

Candlelit corners and fireside couches will make you feel instantly comfortable at this Lincoln Park bar. The extensive menu encourages sampling by offering flights and half bottles from around the globe; there are plenty of choices for novices and connoisseurs alike. The grub is equally worldly, ranging from chorizo-stuffed dates to rigatoni sautéed with fennel sausage. If you’re just grazing, opt for the cured meats or a selection of hard-to-find dessert cheeses like Cocoa Cardona and Raspberry BellaVitano.

Great Match: The roasted-beet salad and a glass of 2009 Andrian Pinot Bianco (Italy), $20 total.
