@BuildingChi I always felt that the railing there was too short (the railing from where you took photo 1). Walking on that sidewalk during the summer with the food trucks, it'd get crowded. I'd walk in the street around the trucks rather than squeeze through there. It's a long way down. π¬
@UrbanCourtyard "Good rugs make good neighbors". I like to think that Robert Frost would have mentioned this in a poem if he ever lived in a Chicago vintage brick courtyard apartment building. The poem would be called "Mending Rugs".
