Trade your free shit for their free shit 5/10-5/11

Posted by Reader staff on Wed, May 7, 2008 at 10:30 AM

It's free store time again, and this edition is at the Pullman State Historic Site. That includes the Hotel Florence, which will be open for viewing so you can do some site seeing while you're offloading and collecting free shit. Organizers promise to have a grill going both days (bring your own grillables to eat and share), and there's a veranda they'll be using in case of rain. Hours are noon to six Saturday and noon to four Sunday.

The site's at 11111 S. Forrestville. For more info: salem@temporaryservices.org or 773-562-1428.

Hi, here's directions to the site. No trading is necessary but we encourage you to bring something that you don't want or need any longer: //////////////////// DIRECTIONS TO THE PULLMAN STATE HISTORIC SITE and information about the neighborhood: http://www.pullman-museum.org The Pullman State Historic Site and Hotel Florence is located at 11111 South Forrestville. Drivers: The Pullman State Historic Site is easily accessible from Interstate 94, using either exit 66A (111th Street) or 66B (115th Street). Take a left before the viaduct – it's a huge building, you can't miss it! Parking is available on Forrestville in front of the Hotel and throughout the neighborhood. By Public Transit: The Metra Electric train stations at 111th Street and 115th Street are within a short walking distance.
