Yeah, I haven't lived in NYC or SF, and I'm certainly not intending to imply that they outperform Chicago in these regards, but I think there are a lot of second and third tier cities in the country that compare more favorably. I agree that there are a few streets in every neighborhood that have charm, but they tend to be the tucked away residential streets rather than the commercial streets. I want more of Chicago to resemble Andersonville, Lincoln Square, etc, I guess.
