Thanks. I'm proud of this one. I hope the OP is all still up and running. I need to check.

Some of the pics aren't showing up for me. You?

A couple.

OP like this are hard to keep up. I'll work on it this weekend.

It's hard. Pictures movie, are deleted, etc.

I just reread the opening. Was fun to look at again.

Thanks! It was a labor of love. I still have to fix some thing and add.

Very informative OP!

:eek:

A lot of places look the same.

Can't believe I never made the fictional Shermer connection before.

Thank you. It was a long time to make.

The high school Bender went too now being used as a police station just kind of feels right, doesn't it? Lol.

As a little kid, I didn't either.

What was the building used for before the police station? Was it actually a school?

That's an interesting connection Barry.

It was a school, yes. It was only open for a few years. It was built thinking the neighborhood was going to grow and get bigger. I guess it didn't grow enough and it closed down before the movie ever shot there. It was vacant, but they still had some school stuff in there and they completely had the run of the place.

Thanks for telling us. I love hearing all the info.

Man, I would love to take a tour of John Hughes' Chicago. I have a video in the OP, but I would love to do it in person.

That would be so fun. I've never been to Chicago.
