The new
Kiddie Academy of Chicago has taken shape at the prominent bend once occupied by
Lincoln Lanes and Matty K's Hardware. A photo I took of the old building the morning of the fire is below.

A terrible day for our neighbors and the loss of local history and a good sports bar. |
Here's
my post from last June with more info and photo links of the Kiddie Academy news and the Lincoln Lanes fire of 2015.

The site is adjacent to a McDonald's drive-thru. I'd hoped this whole corner home to an older McDonald's store and the vacant Lincoln Lanes lots would have been redeveloped together. In related news McDonald's projects and 300% spike in Happy Meal sales by 2020.
