Now Trending on Rogers Park in 1,000 Words

Rogers Park, Rogers Park blog, and even Broken Heart of Rogers Park searches land here at Rogers Park in 1,000 Words. Bonfire is also common due to the beach bonfire events that I host starting on March 20th of each year. What is interesting, are the two locations that popped this morning, 1705 W. Jonquil and the Farcroft building.

1705 W. Jonquil Terrace Chicago IL 60626 is a residential building built in 1928. This building is one of the many reported bed bug infestations. A report is as follows:

"This building is still infested!! I started getting bit the first night I moved in. For a month I didn't know what was biting me, until one night I woke up and saw one crawling on my pillow. The landlords tried to say that I had them already which I didn't according to neighbors they said the same thing to them. He came and sprayed himself but never called an exterminator. I talked to my alderman office and they confirmed that this building has had problem with bed bugs before an addition to this site. I wish I knew about this site before I moved in that building thankfully I didn't take any with me when I moved. It was a nightmare". - former resident

The Farcroft building is located at 1337 W. Fargo Avenue and is also a residential building built in 1928. Currently undergoing a renovation that began two years ago, the Farcroft is the northernmost highrise building in Chicago.

An interesting feature of the Farcroft are the various comic grotesques that decorate the lower floors, including relief carvings symbolizing human vices (vanity, gluttony, and greed), and a portly character proudly displaying himself as "The Owner".

The Broken Heart of Rogers Park is trending this morning. I should break out my screen shot archives for historical purposes soon. Rogers Park Arts and Culture were represented well with heavy searches for the Glenwood Arts District, The Granada Theater and Adelphi Theater. Lakeside recreation was also on our minds with interest in bonfires, and more specifically, beach bonfires.

This morning

Last nights beach bonfire event was such a success that it ran into the morning and even made me a little late for work.

Sorry, Boss. I know your watching.

These things have to be experienced at least once in your life!

Stay tuned to Rogers Park in 1,000 Words for information about my future events in Rogers Park.

Bonfire event tonight

Cafe Society is hosting the third bonfire event of 2011 this evening. All are welcome to attend.

Photos from last weeks event:

Fire and Lightning - Rogers Park

There is lightning on the horizon in Rogers Park, and I'm hosting the Friends of Bill Morton Spring Fire tonight.



I would like to up the ante and offer a one hundred dollar prize to the first of my guests to take a photo that includes both my bonfire and a strike of lightning hitting Lake Michigan.

RSVP required.

First Day of Spring events

Ever since Spring 1996, I have planned special events on the first day of Spring, March 20th. Here are two of my events in Rogers Park this evening.


Cafe Society Spring Coffee Talk

Charmers Cafe. 7pm RSVP required


Cafe Society is not a new idea. In Beethoven's time in Vienna, great minds gathered over coffee, a beverage that only recently had eclipsed tea as the Viennese hot beverage of choice, to discuss all manner of cultural and intellectual concerns, face to face, undistracted. The Stock Exchange of that day was conceptualized and created in a local coffee house.

Coffee houses still exist today but Cafe' Society proposes a more social alternate to a computer screen. Discussion, locally produced art and music and good coffee and food. Need we say more?

Welcome to the first day of Spring! To celebrate we will be meeting at the casually elegant Charmers Cafe of Rogers Park. Coffee tasting and chatting until 8pm.





Friends of Bill Morton Spring Fire
Sherwin on the Lake. 9pm RSVP required

If you are friends with Bill Morton, you belong here.

Welcome to the first day of Spring! Stop by, and bring some wine or snacks. I will provide the private beach and the bonfire.

First bonfire of the year

The first beach bonfire of the year went very well at Sherwin on the Lake. The chilly evening made standing by the fire a pleasant experience.

I would like to take the time to thank EveryBlock Chicago for syndicating my Rogers Park Friends of Bill Morton bonfire.

A bonfire with friends

Revisiting a great evening at the beach bonfire.

Just checking into Rogers Park in 1,000 Words after my visit to Sam Leone Beach with Rock N Roll, The Lighthouse BBQ, and making sure that Quest is secure while closed for the Holiday.
