"He was so scared…"
When fire swept a vacant tenement at Pitt and Broome Sts. early yesterday, families in an adjoining house fled to the street in nightclothes. Lydia Krepa, 13, took her cat Billy with her. “He was so scared,” she said. PM Daily, October 27, 1941

Entirely Irrelevant: *LIVE ABOVE WEEGEE’S LOUNGE*
$425 *LIVE ABOVE WEEGEE’S LOUNGE* (Logan Square) (map)
Date: 2010-11-30, 2:35PM CST
Looking for a reliable person to occupy a room in a spacious 3 bedroom apartment above Weegee’s Lounge on Armitage Ave. $425 includes all amenities: a private parking space, wireless internet, Direct TV (all movie channels), in unit laundry and a huge landscaped patio/garden for outdoor grilling and entertaining.
I am a European born, female bartender at a local Logan Square restaurant. This is an ideal situation for people in the service industry, artists, musicians……the bar gets a little noisy on the weekends and I tend to keep late hours … I have no pets due to allergies and prefer a roommate sans furry friend. I love music, film, world travel and unique individuals with great stories and chill attitudes. Feel free to check out Weegee’s on Yelp to get an idea of it’s denizens and general vibe. The room is available Dec 1st. It comes with a bed and large TV (unless you have your own) These items can easily be removed. My name is Ivona and I can be reached at… between the hours of 2pm and 2am.
