Eat in the street! Pizza Metro and El Nuevo Mexicano take over Clark Street in Lakeview

The outdoor cafe seating extends to the street at El Nuevo Mexicano 2914 N Clark Street

I like the design of the Pizza Metro planters at 2863 N Clark Street and Orchard Street

 

"People Spots" jutting out into Chicago streets have been around for a little while. Many have made a statement with eye catching design.  Restaurants have been able to use the concept to extend outdoor seating.  Do you like the outdoor seating in the streets or do you want your parking spots back?
