“Some days I can’t even leave the house. What will happen if I’m taken away and deported? What will my children do? Where will they go? Who will take care of them? What about their education? Will they have a home? Fear is all I feel…”

A week or so ago I walked up to Chicago and Franklin to a Starbucks there to meet Jen, Jay, and Marcus. Jen and Jay were in town from New York and I finally got to meet their baby, Katie! She’s so adorable. Anyway, I passed by this mural on Franklin & Ontario and stopped to admire it. I can’t figure out what restaurant used to be here. The internet is failing me! This is what the building looks like on Google Streetview:
Any ideas?

I’m not sure exactly what the mural on the Chase Bank on Milwaukee Avenue is, but it seems to have a lot of Mexican themes, which would make sense with the history of the neighborhood.
