We're hosting our monthly Streetsblog Chicago meetup and happy hour next Wednesday at Jaks Tap in the West Loop/UIC. Our meetups are a great opportunity to hang out and network with folks who are passionate about sustainable transportation and livable streets. Here's the skinny:

Streetsblog Reader Meetup
Wednesday, July 6, 5:30-8 p.m. (probably somewhat later)
Jaks Tap
901 W Jackson Blvd, Chicago

It's a block or so north of the Blue Line's UIC-Halsted Station and there's a Divvy station right in front of the bar.

Hang out with Streetsblog's John Greenfield and Steven Vance (just back from his European sabbatical) and fellow readers -- you already know each other from the comments and social media.

We'll have a few pints and talk about hot transportation and public space issues, be it neighborhood greenways, the Rosemont Transit Center overhaul, or the Divvy expansion.

Hope to see you there!

RSVP on Facebook if you like.
