Where is Oak Park?


View Larger Map

For those who have asked me where Oak Park is, I have embedded this handy map. What's fun is you can actually walk the neighborhood by clicking on 'view larger map' then click on the 'street view' button and then double clicking on any of the blue highlighted streets. You can't actually 'walk' down our street because it isn't one of the blue highlighted ones but you can look towards our block by positioning yourself at the corner of Chicago and Cuyler and then look north. You can see where we are in relationship to Chicago by clicking on the minus sign on the left to zoom out or you can check out Oak Park by zooming in by clicking the minus sign or just double clicking on the position you would like to zoom in on. Mom and Dad, if you haven't navigated online maps before - they're fun. It's especially interesting to do the whole street view thing. You can actually do a virtual tour of Oak Park. You can also see the building I will be working in by doing the street view option at the corner of Dearborn and Madison right downtown. The building that Halcrow Yolles is in is the glass cladded one on the SE corner. Enjoy!
