I've lived in Chicago for about a year and a half, and I've never been to Chinatown. Can anyone tell me if it's similar to the one in NY (Canal Street area)? I'm looking for a brooch for my wedding dress, and people keep telling me to go to Chinatown to scope one out because there usually really nice, and super cheap.
Thoughts anyone? Thanks!
Do what people are telling you. Chinatown is located around 22nd & Wentworth and is accessable from the Dan Ryan. It is smaller than the ones in NYC and San Francisco but has shops that should have what you want.
Take the L or Red line litrerally to Chinatown. However note, to get to Chinatown unless your coming up far north you will have to go through Chicagos East Side Ghetto. Though they moved out and cleared out the Hyde Park Chinatown is still surrounded by the East and West Side ghettos respectfully.
Your best bet is taking the L there and getting whatever shipped to you or come up all the way north then south. Or if your on the South -West- side of chicago and notice everyone there stays in the bubble now you know why.
If your on the South West Side of Chicago you can take the metra thats the only way a South Sider (They are actually South West Siders but hey) gets downtown and its either by a car full of people ready to protect themselves for their dear lives or metra to cut through the ghettos
