Door to Door - 110 W Chicago

Paul's Bus Stop, 110 West Chicago Street
Situated right in between the railroad tracks and the Pace Bus Terminal, directly across the street from the train station, this narrow little convenience store has been servicing public transit riders for years.  It becomes a flurry of activity when all the busses come in, all at roughly the same time.  Then it just as suddenly gets quiet.  The people behind the counter know how to ring people out fast because everyone that goes in here is subject to the timetables of transit.

For a brief period, Paul opened a small convenience grocery across the street (in the aforement braiding salon), but it didn't last too long.  However, this little 7-11 style business continues to thrive.
