A trixie admires her likeness to Reese Witherspoon, star of the exciting new film “Legally Blond 2”.
A sign advertises a lovely coach house for rent in the Sheffield Garden District of Lincoln Park. Hard times have hit local Lincoln Park landlords lately, as condo sales have snapped many of the former renters off the market. Unfortunately for this particular coach house, the landlord would need to find two TrixieMales willing to part with $900 per month and still share the common areas; in most cases, the same TrixieMale could spend his $900 per month on mortgage payments on a petite condo near Larrabee & Armitage.
A Ravenswood train makes its way north on a recent Friday afternoon packed with Lincoln Park residents anxious to get home and out to the bars for the evening. A recent study by the LPTS indicates that they Ravenswood is the best maintained and cleanest line in the CTA system. Even though many of the Brown Line stations in Lincoln Park have been slated for complete renovation by the CTA, a survey of society members indicates Trixies consider the somewhat run-down stations to be ‘charming’ and ‘truly representative of the older parts of the city’.
The BMW X5 is not a Sport Utility Vehicle as many area residents are led to believe. According to BMW North America, the X5 is a Sport Activity Vehicle, not meant to be taken off road at all. Driving down Armitage with his golden retreiver in the passenger’s seat, a Lincoln Park resident makes use of his SAV by not taking it off road. A sidenote to prospective X5 owners, a special dealer installed option is a doggie water dish which extrudes from the front dashboard, essential for hydrating larger dogs in Lincoln Park.
Keys to only the finest cars parked at Cafe BaBaReBa are kept on the upper row of the valet box. The Cafe, one of Lincoln Park’s premiere tapas establishments, is testing a new system to locate parked vehicles. According to Jose, the valet parking manager, new plush toys embedded with GPS chips are left in cars parked by the valets, allowing the car to be easilly located during the very busy Friday and Saturday evening rushes (see sample stuffed bear in the lower right of the valet box).
