Salon Article “Neo-bohemian Rhapsody”
The lede:
Frankly, I am oh so tired of this discussion, but hey, it’s not everyday that my ‘hood is mentioned in Salon.
Enjoy!
UPDATE:
The impetus for this article is the new book, Neo-Bohemia: Art and Commerce in the Postindustrial City, by Richard D. Lloyd , which is about Wicker Park specifically.
I am disappointed. Even though Jinx is in one of the photos on the cover, I am not given credit for gentrifying the neighborhood, which I did single-handedly.
Next, they’ll deny you credit for mainstreaming and thus ruining blogging. Life is cruel!
