Who are we? We’re the Opps!

A trip to New York City inspired us to more thoroughly explore our home, the great city of Chicago, drawing inspiration from Elliot in the Parks‘ quest to visit every Chicago park, and Edward Robert McClelland‘s write-ups of every neighborhood. Since we’re a library-loving family, Chicago’s 81 public library branches, conveniently distributed around the city’s 77 community areas, provide a fantastic jumping-off point to learn about each neighborhood.
Join us as we branch out (get it?) to Chicago’s libraries and neighborhoods!
