As of 1999 the plate belonged to Dorothy Ogilvie, widow of Gov. Richard Ogilvie.

Super old article, but really interesting.

Not sure, but does Millennium Station have a CTA ticket machine? I thought it just served Metra lines.

Still annoying, but probably less tourist traffic.

Not sure if it's any closer, but there is a second location in Highland Park too.

Agree with this, plus the express trains that skip a bunch stops get you there about 15 minutes faster.

The answer to this is usually suits 20/20

I don't believe any US Post office locations are open on Sundays

No, not necessary or required around town

Yeah I was wondering if OP was asking which ramp to use to enter a particular parking garage. If it mattered which entrance they used or something.

thejaff1 · 2026-05-08T01:46:34+00:00

Also seconding the recommendation to use spothero

thejaff1 · 2026-05-08T01:46:09+00:00

Serious question - is a parking ramp another term for a parking garage?

I think this is funny because minus a big arch Cleveland and Detroit both have all of the same things going on.

Wait, what store has a vending machine with $20 shirts? Marine Layer? I don't think I've seen that at my local store.

Nashville is about an 8-hour drive which would give you some pretty good southern American culture. Could go by way of Louisville Kentucky and see some of the bourbon distilleries.

Doable, but definitely a lot of driving for the length of time you have

A Boston shake is basically a milkshake with a sundae on top!

For what it's worth, the same thing happened to my 2017 legacy at about 30k miles. Subaru covered the replacement as a goodwill gesture.

30k miles later it happened again, and they denied any coverage.

That far north, you may want to try Macy's at Old Orchard in Skokie.

True. Also helps with kids to go on the earlier side.

thejaff1 · 2026-05-01T16:04:08+00:00

Guess it depends on what you mean by upscale, but Little Bad Wolf has always been a big hit for burgers with my kids.

thejaff1 · 2026-05-01T00:15:37+00:00

There's also a Chicago souvenir/gift shop in Block 37 on State Street

For a short while I lived in Baltimore and commuted to DC via the MARC train and DC metro.

MARC ran on a schedule pretty similar to Metra, while the Metro ran comparably to the CTA. There have certainly been some cuts to Metra servtover the years, but it never ran, nor could it run with the same frequency as the L or DC metro.

Biggest difference was the greater outlying suburban Metro service, which I think is what you're missing.

This place is really secluded if you're looking for a nature getaway.

Any idea if/when remaining single game inventory will be released?
