Joe when I took those pics it was a Sunday morning in January and probably 10 below 0. There were people that actually came out and approached my father asking what our business was there. They lived in the place across the street called The Victory Church which used to be Mr. Norms parts warehouse. The place is now a half way house for recovering drug addicts. They thought we were sent by the city to close them down.

X-plant. That decal is a repop on that car. You can tell because they are a bright blue instead of the original dark like French blue.

Joe...it's not a real people friendly area anymore...a few more blocks west gets you to the best damn hot dogs in Chicago...Jimmy's... a block or 2 south and you better have a vest on....

I haven't eaten at Jimmy's in a while...but that sure doesn't look like it unless they tore it down and started over,...there were no outside service windows and it was Jimmy's....if it's Jim's now it must have changed hands...but that looks too nice to be Jimmy's...their slogan was "give us a test,ours are the best" where did you get that pic anyway ?

Going in the other direction on Grand Ave. from Norm's you could have gotten a pretty good beef at Boston's Beef.

And if it was 1973 you could have enjoyed your hot dogs or beef and went here for some entertainment.
