Bookmark the Wicker Park Bucktown West Town DNAinfo page if you enjoy neighborhood news. Feel free to email (ahauser@dnainfo) or call me (773-960-3997) with your news leads. Tomorrow I will be working out of the “pop up newsroom” at 1550 N. Milwaukee (inside Lubinski Furniture) so come by with your story tips or just to say ‘hi.’
If you regularly visited the pipeline for news or volunteered to help it keep on truckin,’ I appreciate your readership and support. If it weren’t for Philin Phlash and many others (as well as local advertisers who made the pipeline possible) I would’ve stopped long ago. Thank you!
Please note: There’s a few stories that are not published which I’m in the process of finalizing with editors, so if we’ve spoken about a topic and you don’t see it on this list of posts beneath my bio, it’s possible it will be published in the near future.
Following are a few stories written by myself and other DNAinfo writers, whose photos are in this post.

P.S. The best part about being part of a larger team, at least at this very moment, is a fast computer. IT guy Brian McGinn, right, said I had way too many windows open and that was the cause of the “pinwheel of death,” which incompetent Mac users like myself know all too well b/c it shows up on our screens all the time and freezes stuff up.
