Wicker Park Field House

I’ve no idea what it is but I’m totally down with this place. It’s so dated and Shabby McShabberson that conventional wisdom says you really ought not like it… but I DO.
My son and his bff took their first soccer lessons here, in the gym that’s straight out of the 1950’s. Outside the gym, they have all these trophy cases that house all manner of trophies from volleyball, basketball, baseball, etc from days gone by… and I love they call it the Wicker Park Field House, again totes throwback.
The staff working here are usually fairly unhelpful w a side of hipster infused attitude that’s evidently delivered by osmosis or something like that… but that’s part of the charm I suppose.
There’s a crap load of history behind this place such as the fountain just outside the Field House which was built in the late 1800’s, very cool.
