Unsafe Everywhere

Of course, it's the west side:

  • A woman was hospitalized after a shooting in East Garfield Park Thursday afternoon, according to Chicago police.

    The woman, 63, was on the sidewalk in the 500 block of South Albany Avenue about 5:20 p.m. when two people approached her, and one of them fired shots, police said. She was shot in the head and taken to Mt. Sinai Hospital in fair condition.

    No one is in custody.

A regular occurrence in that part of town, but the address....

The 011 District is on Harrison, between Kedzie and Albany. The parking garage borders Albany, as does the Area 4 Police garage. And the old "Albany Inn" of tavern stories is literally right there. You'd think there were a dozen cops within sight and sound of that location.

Yup. I heard the shot. I went the other way.

I'm not going to be the next "asshole racist cop" who kilt a poor "under served" future basketball star.

Let this democrat city BURN.

Fond memories of watching the sun come up while drinking beer at the Albany Inn. Late 80's as a recruit and newbie in 011 on 3rd watch. What a great time to be the police.

The only 'shot's' I'm interested in are the ones served at the Albany Inn...

Wasn't one of us or one of our families so why risk the lawsuit , Besides some supervisor worried about his next merit bump would probably call off the foot chase

Long gone..
Grand Central Station has changed owners and names over the years. When it was a Hispanic joint, they had a brothel upstairs. Then it turned ghetto.

The correct name is “Albany Inn”, and if you worked in the building at Harrison & Kedzie (or an invited guest) .you’ll know exactly where it is. Does it still exist? Inquiring minds want to know.
