Does anyone know what the Old Soldier's Home is currently being used for and its condition? Even better, has anyone been inside? Its an interesting building (being associated with Camp Douglas) and I would like to try and get in there. Thank you for any help you can provide.

I want to start by saying this is a great site. I am very interested in Nelson Algren and was wondering if anyone ever came across photos of Algren in his Wabansia Apartment? I know Shay published a few of them but I imagine there are others. Or do others know of any other sites that he frequented (i.e. bars) that may still be around? Thank you.

I remember going to Kees as a kid. My mom would park on the roof and we would take the (moving sidewalk?) down. I also remember six corners being quite active. We would usually go to Mr. Steers on Milwaukee for lunch.

Does anyone know if people are saving any of the historic building elements? Would I be able to go by and salvage items?
