“Bucktown Neighborhood Tour” Video Hosted by PLRG & Chicago.com

So, we finally wrapped up the video we had been working on with Chicago.com. The neighborhood tour of Bucktown turned out great and we had waaaay too much fun during the “making of” stages. Hopefully they feel the same way and we’ll have more videos like this to come!

Below is the video and a short description (in case you feel like visiting any of these amazing B-Town spots):

Vinnie is back. This time he’s strolling through Bucktown, one of Chicago’s hippest hoods for shopping and eating. For a total throwback, try Margie’s Candies. For 80 years they have created homemade treats: fudge, truffles, and ice cream. Vinnie then takes you to the T-Shirt Deli. It’s not a real deli though. You design your own T-Shirts (or underwear) with a funny saying (”I luv Vinnie”, perhaps?) Then at Personal Privilege you’ll see the cute décor and stylish clothes. This store is great for any budget, and they even serve drinks to keep your pals happy while you try on jeans. Finish the day at Duchamp with some amazing wings and burgers with a French twist, and then jam to some music at the Double Door. Yep, Vinnie knows Chicago!

PS- The beginning of the video was filmed in the Chicago.com offices, which are inhabited by all males. Just wondering if you were impressed with how clean it looks on the video as we were ; ) We see an article about “keeping your office tidy” in your near future, Vinnie…
