Photos Worth a Thousand Words
Chicago is a city of neighborhoods, and while Chicagoans may never agree on which neighborhood is “the best,” few could argue that the Portage Park neighborhood isn’t up there among them. My Portage Park was created out of a desire to showcase a strong sense of community pride—in photos. As simple as a snap and a tag, residents are able to share their photos through a collected Instagram feed. Since its launch, #myportagepark has become a community collage, fed by the neighbors who want to share their love of their neighborhood with one another, and is often referred to by realtors and neighborhood associations who want to give further example of Portage Park as a place where people are proud to call home.
