East McFetridge Dr
"One of my favorite roads!!!"
The reason it is one of my favorite roads is because it is the road to get to the museum! The museum of natural history in Chicago is in my opinion one of the greatest museum's i have ever been to, except for new york. It is connected by S Columbus Dr. and Solidarity Dr.
West Court Pl
"Small dead end street."
This street is very small for a city street, It is a dead end street that is home to many buisnesses.It is located right near city hall and also the Civic center. Mostly business not a lot of residential areas around there. Also connects to Upper Wacker from the other side.
South Columbus Dr
"A lot of traffic, Right near park."
South Columbus Drive splits off of South Lake Shore Drive. It is also parallel to the Illinois central train station. It also splits through grant park, one of the greatest parks I have ever been to, great for the kids. This road brings back good memories going to Soldier Field to see the Bears play.
South Blue Island Ave
"If you don't work there, Don't go there."
As simple as that, try not to find yourself wandering around this area. Granted the street is 80% storage containers, it is very run down and almost abandon like. I believe it turns into W26th St., which ironically is a beautiful site to see with tress and park area. Overall not the best street in Chicago.
West Hastings St
"Not a place to hang out."
This is one of these streets that I would not hang out on. Don't get me wrong the people that LIVE in the area can be nice but the park right near here is not so nice. I think the only thing I can say about this street is that in the daytime the parks are nice to bring the kids.
West Arcade Pl
"Small street, Nice place to live."
I had a good childhood friend live on this street a long time ago. It's a nice area, small street. It is close to pretty much all the essentials you need and it is even close to the sears tower. Close to all major highways, but traffic can get pretty bad at times. Overall a nice street to live on.
Diversey Pkwy
"Diversey (Traffic) Parkway"
Diversey Parkway is a major street on the North Side of Chicago. I recently found out that the street is named after a nineteenth-century beer brewer named Michael Diversey. There is always a lot of traffic on this road, but the view is nice as it is right near the river.
Eylandt St
"Quiet Area with school."
This is a very unique street in Staten Island. This is the only known street to me that does not have any houses on it. What it does have is Tottenville High School, my former high school. that bieng said it is very quiet. A few blocks down there is a big shopping plaza and plenty to eat.
Stack Dr
"Narrow Streets with a lot of traffic"
Stack Drive is right in the middle of the Avon Green Development. It is very narrow with way too much traffic and double parked cars. The neighbors are very close and friendly and there is a community pool nearby. There is also a park not far from there. All semi-attached houses.
Crossfield Ave
"Very wide streets."
I had one of my best friends live on this street. It was very wide which is unusual for Staten Island. Not that many houses on the block. It was off of Arthur kill Rd. which is a main road. All semi-attached houses with small yards. Overall pretty nice area.
Myrna Ln
"Bad parking, Good neighbors."
Probably the worst parking on the island. The only good thing I can say about this street is that there is a nice park for the kids to play in. The neighbors are also very homely. For the golfer there is a course right across the street. All the houses are also semi-attached.
Winchester Ave
"Great quiet street."
Winchester Ave. extends for 4 blocks. Below Hylan Blvd. it is very quiet and it is right off the water which makes it nice, but it can sometimes give off the beach smell in the summer. Not a lot of kids and the location makes it very convenient for city commuters.

"Very crowded area."
Ebey lane is a part of Avon Green. It is very crowded with tons of double parked cars due to NO parking. There is a lot of kids that hang out at night and it can get quite loud. The only good thing I can say is that the neighbors are okay and everyone seems very close-knit.

"Good Neighbors, Quiet Neighborhood"
I lived in a side apartment on Hett Ave. It's a dead end street with a good deli a few blocks down. It is pretty quiet at night. There are a lot of kids there but I didn't mind them. Near a good high school and one of the best pizza places on Staten Island.
