Bucktown/Wicker Park looks is a cheesier version of Reno, NV. The planning for development in the area was non-existent. It has gone downhill over the last 5 years. Glad we sold our home in 2007 and moved out. Have not been back since. However, if you are looking for a cheap ho to bang, there are plenty still waking the alleys.
As usual, the TOC staff have shown their incompetence & lack of knowledge. Maybe they should have asked people that actually live in the area to help them. Ok there are far too many bars & restaurants in Wicker Park/Bucktown to name them all, but the late night eats was pathetic as there are better & later opening options available and any review of bars in the area that does not include Danny’s has to be suspect. It’s about time TO head office replaced the TOC staff with more compent people.
