Been there several times, went through the sub too. University of Chicago is near Greek Town on the near west side of Chicago, easily 8 miles away from the Museam of Science and Industry. It is about a mile away from the intersection of Racine and Jackson. Check your maps or look it up in the map feature of Yahoo if in doubt and if you are planning on visiting it. - --- Michael Darnton <mdarnton@hotmail.com> wrote: > This has been a topic of less than no interest to > me, but as someone > actually living in Chicago it has sometimes caught > my eye enough to see that > several people have given names and addresses for > museums which don't exist, > or aren't where people have said they are.
