Old Navy T-Shirt Has, Um, Interesting Ideas About Chicago Neighborhood Locations

Per Gapers Block comes an Old Navy T-Shirt, apparently sold at the chain store's State Street location, with some rather unusual ideas about where Chicago's neighborhoods are located.
Did you know west side Austin, south side Lawndale and tony north side neighborhood Lincoln Park all border each other? Neither did we.
Also: what happened to Rogers Park? It was here a minute ago, we swear! Same thing with Pilsen. ¿Dónde está Pilsen? Pilsen no está aquí. No es bueno!
Graphic designer Jennifer Haffner snapped the pic of the T.

Old Navy's Twitter responded to complaints thusly:

So there's that. Also, as Gapers Block says: "At least they didn't flat-out steal Ork Posters' design. "
