Information on Beverly Hills/Morgan Park Area |
Our resident south-sider Lou Canellis goes down to his old stomping grounds! The Beverly Hills/Morgan Park area has so much to offer and is so quaint-it's pretty amazing that it's technically still part of the city! Beverly is one of the largest urban historic districts in the nation. This village in the city is in the southwest corner of Chicago, just a 30 minute Metra ride to the loop!
