About ChiTownView / Stop & Look

Welcome to ChiTownView where we present clips about the Chicago area & it's history. Traveling around the city I'm always aware of the history that surrounds me and how quickly the physical signs of the history can slip away.So I stop look and make short clips and if there's a story behind what I'm seeing I share it.

The material we're uploading here are all original productions. We have three continuing series running right now. "Chicago Crime Now & Then" is our look at the long history of organized crime in the windy city. We also look at the area designs by Frank Lloyd Wright. And take you on The Chicago Neon Tour.

We are part of MindsiMedia an internet broadcasting outlet. There's a link to our web portal below.
