In The Third Coast, we learn about neighborhoods and stories you might not see on the front page of the newspapers. Chicagoans frequently have their own favorite “hidden gems” in their neighborhoods – the playlot with a great swing set that’s never crowded, the dive bar with the best bartender in town, the pedway shortcut that gets you from your office to the train in two minutes or less, or the restaurant with out-of-this-world egg rolls, pizza or bar-b-que. (The Winter Garden at our own Harold Washington Library Center is a commonly mentioned “hidden gem” of Chicago!)
For this mission, let us know - what’s your favorite hidden gem or secret spot in your neighborhood?
Answer the question here or tweet us your favorite at @1book1chicago - feel free to share a photo of your favorite place too!
All participants will be entered to win a gift certificate to a local bookstore, as well as a chance at the grand prize, an iPad.
Deadline: Sunday, December 13, 2015 at 11:59 p.m
