AWESOME BREWERY!!! We love this place it's always fun. However, you should definitely take an uber or a cab here cause it's not in the safest area. But it is totally worth it. Just do it. You can thank us later.

Parks & Nature

The closest you will get to a hiking trail in the city. Really pretty though and a fun activity. People walk, run, and bike down the trail. There are places to sit and hangout as well. The closest access ramp to the trail is on Damen Avenue , just north of West Willow St. (the map shows a further ramp, don't go to that one)
