*Hello Chicago*

- This is a city of monster proportions – huge in every way, with thrilling architecture, wonderful food, and the glistening vastness of Lake Michigan as a shifting backdrop. It is a place where things happen

- 44 entries that explore some of the best aspects of Chicago: dimly-lit bars, Puerto Rican sandwiches, hot dogs with duck fat fries, Frank Lloyd Wright architecture, Chess Records and the 1893 World’s Fair’s earthly remains

 

*Austin on the Hoof*

- This is the very best of the Texas state capital, useful year-round and essential for South By Southwest

- The 49 entries encompass Tex-Mex restaurants and German beer halls, honky-tonks and cemeteries, record shops and natural springs. And then there’s barbecue too

 

*How To Find Old LA*

- This is a guide to the old LA that lives on today. These places have made few concessions to changing times, but modern Angelenos love them still

- 39 Entries that encompass both the glamour and the demimonde; glittering 1920's movie palaces, down-and-dirty bars, ballrooms, diners, and pizza joints

 

*William Brown Project*

- The William Brown Project is photographer and GQ contributor Matthew Hranek's online alter-ego, a huntin', shootin', fishin', eatin', drinkin' and shoppin' character equally at home in the woods, on the river or downing cocktails in Manhattan bars.

- This map takes in vintage clothing stores, restaurants, cafés and bars, each entry personally selected and carefully described. It is a selection which reveals new pleasures and confirms a few old ones.
