Oldest Chicago ReviewThis is certainly an entertaining book, particularly for Chicagoans interested in various neighborhoods. It is full of facts which must have taken considerable effort to uncover. I just wish the author or editors had taken a little more care to get more of the facts and directions correct and to fix the obvious typos. e.g. page 12 The House of Peacock opened in 1837 not 1937; p 22 Leopold Loeb is not one person - presuming the author meant either Nathan Leopold or Richard Loeb; p 23. Jimmy's Woodlawn Tap cannot be "visited in Woodlawn" but is actually in the middle of Hyde Park; p 26 Old St Pat's is just east of the Kennedy not just west; p 31 if the Louisville was sunk near the Indiana line, it was near the 68th Street crib not the Wilson Ave crib; p. 73 the Lincoln statue is east of the History Museum not south; p 84 the U of C is northeast of Daley's Restaurant not northwest; p. 85 the Statue of the Republic is not a "remnant" from the Columbian Exposition but a 1918 replica; p 96 the Art Institute is 2 blocks east of Central Camera not west; p 101 Douglas is buried on 35th Street not 36th Street; p 131 Greeece should be Greece; p 165 Sheridan Hotel should be Sheraton Hotel; p 204 Andy's is not 3 blocks southeast of the Jazz Record Mart but about 1/2 block southwest; p 214 Frank Lloyd Wright left his Oak Park Studio in 1909 and would not have been down the block from a Petersen's ice cream cone in 1919; p 217 Wright's home doesn't include "dark paneled wood"; p 235 "the relatively new suburb of Downers Grove" was founded in 1832; 237 Russel's should be Russell's; p 239 Russell's is east of Maywood Park not west of Balmoral Race Track on Dixie Hwy which is 40 miles away, etc. Otherwise great stuff, I think.Oldest Chicago Overview
