Apparently not welcoming enough to lesbians and non-binary. Now to be called "Northalsted."

What saddens me most of all is that we had to carve out a neighborhood in the first place instead of just general hanging out. 99% of you guys wouldn't think I was a mo if I didn't tell you. We'd just be hanging out watching a football game like everyone else.

I think its great part of Chicago's patchwork to have identifiable enclaves rather than generic, nondescript neighborhood names

I used to live in Boystown.

I'm pretty sure I could have done pretty well in the mid-90s if I was into it.

It was a great neighborhood, though.

Then canaryville, what about the sparrows? Jays, cardinals and robins.. Birdville seems more apt.

How did it become Boystown anyway? I am a long time Chicago guy. Always knew there were gays on the North Side. What was this particular area though? The bars? The Bijou Theater?
