Raed Mansour: One of the first original parks not sitting in a landfill in Chicago. Must see before they level a lot the old trees for someone’s ego trip.

Beach · Uptown · 55 tips and reviews
Raed Mansour: I stay away from the dog beach...just one too many bad dog owners. The path and beach are peaceful with little to no skaters and Lance Armstrong pretenders.

Coffee Shop · The Loop · 37 tips and reviews
Raed Mansour: The staff and people here are happy, a polar opposite of most cafe's in the Loop. No power lunches and a tolerable amount of "business" coffees. Really love the fresh pastries.
