Coming Soon to Bucktown…
Belmont Army Surplus!
Formerly occupying three floors at Belmont and the red line, Belmont Army had to move due to work on the red line tracks. Apparently they’ll be moving their treasure trove of fashion, shoes and military surplus to my hood- specifically to Milwaukee and Paulina, across from the Jewel and KMart. Sweet! Not sure if they will still have a location in the Belmont/Lakeview area or if this is the one and only new location.
I seem to remember seeing that Belmont Army Navy Surplus is moving just a block east. I just walked by there, I should remember this…
Hmmmm…2 locations? That would be cool.
they used to have signs saying they were moving a block away, and also some charmers reading “screwed by the CTA sale! everything must go!” needless to say, they got edited.
Some of the ‘screwed’ signs were up until the day the CTA took the keys. Which made me laugh. I do hope they’re moving to that empty spot between the old tea place and the asian shop. I’d hate to lose the store!
Uh–That’s not bucktown. That’s Wicker Park.
