-Ok so i'm making a new "SPOT MAP" for the summer using a CTA train map. I was riding my bike downtown and I spotted some new plazas being built so that inspired me to make this. I want you guys to comment about any spots that you find. Give me location and if it's worthy enough to go. I hope to get this done by spring so we can go and skate it up!
aww dammit i thought this was a secret spot...it was suburbanized already.

ok im looking at google maps right now, and there looks to be a lot of sick spots by the west part of downtown near the sears tower. we need to venture out there more
the ones by fulton morley that we stopped at with frenchy
i went downtown skating all of the last month of summer. i think it was around wabash and clark we found the most kickass 9 set and directly next to it had brick banks to trick in or get however creative. going hd this summer? we're working on getting a baby death
yeah i know the set your talking about right next to the bridge. sick
wait morley where is that spot?
These spots get suburbanized cause kids post them on the internet in blogs and junk, and then they get blown up and the next thing you know there are skate stoppers and gravel everywhere.
