  7. Gettysburg sesquicentennial battle re-enactment in Whitehall honors the 153rd

    If you walk up the long gravel pathway alongside the spacious grassy fields of Whitehall Township's 110-acre main park, the view from the top of the hill is remarkably similar to that from atop the hills just north of Gettysburg.

  11. 75 years, 2 dynasties, 1 river

    The Wendella glides beneath the Michigan Avenue Bridge, headed toward the lake. From where I stand on the top deck, we seem to be moving without a peep. The curve of the bridge's shadow passes across the boat, which is studded with people from elsewhere, everyone gaping upward; then the shadow unfolds, curling along the length of the 90-foot deck, down the stern, back across the water. The passengers shield their eyes from the sudden glare. This picture repeats every few minutes here, if not on a Wendella boat than on a boat from another local tour line, Shoreline, Seadog or Chicago Line. Only the chipperness of the tour guide and shine of the sun vary. Indeed, this day, the Wendella moves so smoothly that as it passes the Mercury boats, Wendella's most persistent competition, on the south bank of the river, I can't help notice Bob Borgstrom looking north. I doubt it's unintentional.

  13. Montclare: A taste of suburban living in the city

    Montclare is not Gold Coast-grand or Lincoln Park-lively, but that's fine with its residents. This tidy, mostly residential enclave is as quiet as city living gets.

  15. Andersonville: A slice of life

    Christopher Watson started his search for a condo by reading a tourism guidebook about Chicago, one that included descriptions of its neighborhoods. He liked what was written about Andersonville. After a job interview at Northwestern University in Evanston, he hopped off the elevated train at Berwyn Avenue and took a walk.

  21. Pilsen: Where change is underfoot

    Granted, she is the alderman's daughter, but Maya Solis also symbolizes the new Pilsen resident —young, of Mexican descent and college-educated. Instead of dashing to the 'burbs after college, these new residents are not only living in their parents' and grandparents' neighborhood; they are involved in Pilsen's community improvement organizations.

  23. Ashburn thriving on a strong sense of community

    When Greg Lis and his friends were growing up in the 1950s and wanted to play baseball, they'd head over to Cinder Field, a vacant lot in the Southwest Side neighborhood of Ashburn, and choose sides for a pick-up game.
