The guy that originally opened Myopic books on Milwaukee is in the process of opening a new used bookstore on Halsted--about 3300 S--right now. And there's a huge theater rehab going on at 3501 S Halsted right now, the Ramova, that's going to be a music venue + brewery + restaurant. I wouldn't be surprised to see the blocks near to there pop in the next decade. I think Morgan street is the best looking commercial strip in Bridgeport by far. Looks alot like Damen in the early 2000's right now.
