    We still love visiting bookstores ... almost a lost art ... and this Barnes & Noble is a great…read morerepresentative of them. Situated in and old bank building on a six corners intersection in Wicker Park, this outlet had a great selection of books and puzzles, and stationary. While it has a nice selection of kids books, there is no area to read to them ... as you often find in other outlets. But being an inner-city retail establishment, one can understand. Parking can be a pain in this busy area, but it can be found. Still and all, this is a very nice retail bookstore, a slowly dying breed. Do visit here.

    04/22/26 - What a great space. This use to be Walgreens, before that it was a bank. I'm so glad…read moreBarnes & Noble decided to use this wonderful space. This Barnes & Noble is on 6 corners @ 1601 N Milwaukee Ave where North Ave, Damen, Milwaukee Avenues meet. This is a beautiful space that was originally a bank. At some point Walgreens took the space and renovated it. After Walgreens left Barnes & Noble decided to make it into one of their stores. It's such a beautiful space. As you walk in at the corner of the 3 streets you enter into a beautiful 2 story space w/coffered ceilings, large vertical windows that flood the space w/a lot of natural light. In the center of this large volume of space there is a beautifully designed hexagonal skylight that is a masterpiece that floods the room w/natural light as well as providing a beautiful central feature within the coffered ceiling. This is really a wonderful space that Barnes & Noble has taken advantage of. It's beautiful space that has very limited seating. I guess they don't want to provide a library atmosphere still it would have been nice to have a few extra seats. On one side there is an escalator that goes up to the second floor loft space where you can look down on the first floor. One thing they put book shelves across the rail side which gives a limited visual down to the first floor. On a side note the bank & Walgreens both utilized the basement space where they had a large vault. Walgreens used it to put their nutritional products. Unfortunately Barnes & Noble has chosen to close of access to the basement which was a very cool space.

    Overhead view of the first floor. Some areas bottleneck badly due to shelf configuration which would be bad in an emergency
