South Loop Shuffle

This ride was short - just a quick trip to the store - a little more than six miles. I did manage though to snap a few shots riding through Pilsen and the south loop. I take many of these photos while riding, something probably dangerous and only a "professional" should do. Thankfully, I don't pay attention to "don't try this at home" signs.

Halsted at 16th

Random condos I found on 16th street near Canal. I still wonder who's buying expensive condos in this economy.

This building is a radio station in Pilsen. Back in July it was sadly defaced but since has been fixed.
