Some photos from Forgotten Chicago of Southport in 1994. Amazing discovery!

1994 on the west side of the 3500 block of Southport. Taken from the old funeral home parking lot, it shows Renovation Source (gone), the future home of Kinkos (FedEx Office – soon to be razed for condos) and Mail Boxes Etc/UPS Store (moved down the block) which is now Anthroplogie.”

Another day, another bollard (or three) knocked down at the Lincoln Hub (and as you can see, no one is sitting in front of Pockets on this perfect August day).  Wonder how much this will cost to fix each time?
