The Chicago Neighborhoods

The Chicago Neighborhoods project is designer Steve Shanabruch’s take on the city he loves. As he says, “a neighborhood with a logo is better than a neighborhood without.” Shanabruch will be posting a new black and white design every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday until all 77 community areas and some of the more well-known neighborhoods are represented. (Can’t wait to see Wicker Park, my haunting grounds for a bit in the early oughts!)
