The Rock Of Roselle

Historical landmark

👍👍 Don't take this place for granite, you'd be hard set if you passed up on this. Like a rock and a hard place. You'd have to be stoned to miss it. Prices are affordable as everything is on shale. If you're going power to the pebble, have an Uber on standby, or the name of a good towing company, whi...

👍 We stopped in because of the building's history. We we're however very disappointed to learn they don't serve food, well except for a pizza of sorts but the bartender was very friendly. We will stop back in some day but I'll be bringing some wings with me! Very interesting place.

Union Stockyards Gate

Historical landmark

👍 It was a short and sweet place to visit. It was very tidy, and there were places to rest as well. My only concern is that the statue and landmark present at the Gates pertain to the firemen who have lost their lives in Chicago, and while that is very important, it would seem more fitting for there t...
