Watching Neighbor Shower Got More Difficult

Residents of this quiet Portage Park street had spent generations watching first floor tenants utilize their extremely light filled bathroom. That all changed with the recent installation of this 'Chagall for Menard's' window. One stoop peeper put it this way, "Not a good day, use know? My gramps, and my pops, and me too, we spent so many hours here, learnin' bout, use know, uh, the human body. And now, how 'm I suppose to teach my boy about dat. Dese gentrify peoples be ruining Chicago."
