Bubbly creek still bubbles, it is also full of Asian Catfish that feed on the waste from the stockyards. On hot days, it smells like rotting meat.

I could be wrong, but isn't Sox Park actually outside of the boundaries of Bridgeport? I remember reading that somewhere; I've got no source though. Perhaps someone can enlighten me?

Clark's on Clark's closed in 2007. The space has been vacant since then. Rumors have the Eagle leather bar relocating here from down the street to allow the Man's Country bathhouse to expand into the Eagle's current space.

July 2008: This space, for the time being, is Il Fiasco, an Italian eatery. But a year into this latest incarnation, they've already changed chefs and the place is not attracting crowds -- even on weekends. With the economic tailspin and three other Italian joints within a short walk of this place (two much better and one at least equal to this place in quality), Il Fiasco looks sure to live up to its name and close by the end of the year.

.
According to the Munich Orientation Convention www.volksnav.com/Chicago, the logical address of the Navteq headquarters is:
- StatusQuo(c) CCG m11 r6
that means:
- 6 x 100 meters from Sears tower (radius)
- in direction m11 (horizon hour, m12 = from Sears tower to north)
Such codes will substitute postal codes, in harmony with maps and codes for crossings, stop points, bridges etc.
