<p>Another option is getting off the red line while you’re in the loop, then catching a 6 bus on State Street (Hyde Park express) and getting off at 57th and Stony Island. The area will be flooded with tourists who are visiting the MSI next door and I think you’ll find 57th street quite cute in comparison to what people think when they think of Hyde Park. It will take you longer, but it will make you feel better, I think. I tend to go this way because I’m not a big fan of Garfield.</p>
