This morning I discover this website - The Chicago Neighborhoods - which seeks to provide logos for the 77 Chicago Community areas and the various neighborhoods around the city. You can see that a few neighborhood logos are up already where you can click on them to see the full image.
I look forward to seeing how they plan to represent the various neighborhoods in The Sixth Ward. Especially Chatham, Park Manor, or even Englewood. With an honorable mention for Roseland Heights which though it's not actually recognized officially by the city of Chicago it's certainly a neighborhood that's more fitting of the idea of village in the city more so than Beverly.
