Groceries and Other Needs
Dominick's has a 24-hour grocery, pharmacy and cafe one block away, offering many ready-made foods for preparing an easy meal "at home." Whole Foods, a full-sized healthfood grocery is just one mile south. We're lucky to be two blocks or less from the post office, public library, free Internet access, a late hours pharmacy and several dry cleaners. And you can walk two blocks to find a Starbucks! For any jetlag, there's a 24-hour diner and 24-hour grocery, both within two blocks

Entertainment
It's a two-block walk to Lincoln Avenue's shops, cafes, restaurants, bars, music venues, movies (six screens) and live theaters. It's one mile to Lincoln Park and its zoo, Lake Michigan's beaches, the botanical gardens, several museums, and Wrigley Field.

Activities
Chicago's largest health club is four blocks away, as are several others, and The Aster House Apts. can offer its guests a free pass for a day's workout. Indoor basketball courts are two blocks; an outdoor court, two playgrounds and a small community pool are a five-block walk. Jonquil Park is just behind us with its gardens, softball field, tennis courts, and playground. A nine-hole public golf course and driving range and the beach with its bike and roller-blade rentals are all about one mile.
