Almost as cool as the untouched disco apartment on Chicago’s far north side.

I love seeing stuff like this. This is the good part of the internet.

It is truly amazing. I hope whoever bought the unit maintained some of that charm. The building is in a pretty odd part of the city, so it could go either way.

Tsk. No one has mentioned Chelsea Girls yet? Well, few do get the chance to see this headache inducing flick. I got to see it with Margaret Moser and Pope Ondine. And, yes, I got a headache.
