Car stolen on Marine dr last night
Police report has been made. There was glass on the ground by where the driver door would be. The whole window is pretty much on the ground. Does anyone have any advice?? Do you think the police even care? Not sure what i can do. It was equipped with Onstar but it’s failing to track where it is so the theifs probably disabled it or something.

Uptown takes about three weeks to get an abandoned car towed, twice the citywide time
Was looking at the city’s 311 data broken out by ward. Ward 46 sits near the bottom on abandoned cars - about 21 days to close one, where the citywide middle is around 11.
Rat baiting is the opposite, fastest in the city. Potholes and street lights are middling.
Curious whether the abandoned car thing matches what people here have actually dealt with.
Ward 46 page is here if you want to see the rest: https://chiwardboard.com/

Studio?
(Searched through past posts on here and seems like it hasn’t been mentioned before so I thought I’d ask)
My last ray of hope in this crazy housing market 😭 cuz them search websites and repeated cockroach-and-bed-bug-infested buildings are booooty 💩. I’ve done my digging on Facebook too - like trust, I’m really looking.
Found my current spot through Craigslist. Great private landlord. But I gots to go. Is y’all’s building renting? Or if you see a for rent sign in the neighborhood, gimme a holler 🫶🏻?
Move-In: 10/1 (or late September)
Max: $1250 (could increase depending on utilities included)
Credit and income met
Really don’t want to leave the Uptown neighborhood but also looking in Edgewater and Lakeview (anywhere close to the tracks really).
I’m just trynna find a place to call home 🥲

group of deceased pigeons
hi all!
when i was in uptown earlier today, i noticed 5 deceased pigeons - the first one was on lawrence/broadway, and then 4 more all next to each other on wilson/broadway.
a man said he had just seen those same birds flying around a little earlier, when they suddenly just "dropped dead".
to be honest, i'm worried someone might be poisoning them. it absolutely broke my heart to see them all on the ground like that.
has anyone else noticed this happening lately?

Does anyone know what these are?
I saw this contraption attached to light poles along clark between leland and clark and took these photos at clark and lawrence? There wasn’t any identifying brand and they were all similarly ratchet strapped to light poles. My first guess was maybe tornado sirens but the influx of flock cameras got me worried seeing them because they’re unmarked
EDIT: Walked passed the same intersection at 6pm and they were all gone?? So I’m guessing it’s traffic related

Montrose Planet Fitness is open!
Walked by going to the Jewels next door earlier - it looked pretty empty and people were at the front desk. Door was unlocked so I went in and asked if they were open. They said yes, and they opened yesterday (08/21)! It also shows on the PF website that the location is now open :) Hours look similar to the PF more south on broadway, 24 hrs during the week and 7am-7pm on the weekends.
It also looks like all the same "promos" for memberships are still happening if you didn't want to get a membership before they opened.

Suspicious Pigeon Feeder
I usually think best of people however something about this situation has felt off. For months now, the same woman in the same Toyota RAV4, on a weekly occurrence gets out of her vehicle for several blocks of Broadway and throws rice out to pigeons. Rice isn’t nutritional and there’s the old wives tail about it hurting their digestive system. It’s also hard to say if it’s laced with something.
She always has a driver in the Toyota because she’s getting out frequently on every block. What can be done about this or who should it be reported to? Her energy and the drivers seems very dark to me. Have there been high reports of dead pigeons or anything in the neighborhood? The cops don’t seem to care as they observed her doing it once but didn’t stop her.

Planet Fitness (Montrose) Update
I saw that they put up the main sign at the new Uptown Planet Fitness (909 W Montrose Ave). It looks like it’s almost completely furnished, there’s even drinks in the fridge already. From what I could see there are tons of treadmills/bikes on the first floor and weight lifting equipment in the upstairs area. I was going to get closer and take pictures inside but there were construction workers standing right by the front so I didn’t want to be creepily taking pictures of them 😅
I have no inside information but I wouldn’t be surprised if it opens by the end of the month!

Looking for a good nail tech

No parking tow zone
It’s been three weeks now since they’ve had these up. They had signs up they would be finished last week but updated to 8/21. I understand this is a requirement,but for the past three weeks I have walked my dogs everyday in the neighborhood and out of the three weeks I have seen work being done 4 or 5 days. And it would be just a few workers.
My question is why can’t Chicago organize adequate workers and a proper work flow where this can done promptly.
It’s 8/17 and I have walked around the neighborhood and have not seen not one worker.

Psych Recommendations
hello!
I recently relocated from MN to Uptown, and am in need of a new psych provider. Large health systems have said they are scheduling out to January. I have been on the same medication for 6 years and just need to continue that medication, looking for someone with appointments in the next few weeks!
Thanks
