Wicker Park is regularly named one of the coolest neighborhoods in the USA! You'll stroll by all sorts of super-hip stores and restaurants with a local guiding the way. You can even pop in somewhere for a few minutes if you'd like. We'll also learn about Wicker's transition from immigrant hub, to a bad 'hood, to artist haven, to current hipster hotspot... Come see where the real Chicagoans live and play!

**We'll take a nice stroll on the 606 walking trail, an old railroad track converted to a beautiful oasis. We'll also see St. Mary's of the Angels, a beautiful church with an unusual history. Lastly, we'll stop at Lottie's Pub for a classic Chicago gangster story (and maybe a beer, too!). **Bucktown is optional. If you'd like to skip this, we'll spend more time in Wicker Park.
