It's New To Us: Odd Chicago Photos

Former Tribune Metro reporter Dave Wischnowsky has created a website of odd Chicago and Illinois-related photographs and ephemera, Odd Chicago Photos.

Wischnowsky said of his plans for the site:

"My hope is to turn oddchicagophotos.com into something really fun for the Chicagoland area. The intent is to tap into the increasing number cell phones featuring high-quality cameras that people own and people's growing penchant for sharing "Mobile Uploads" on their Facebook pages. My website is a way to share those amusing photos with other people beyond one’s own social network, while also using these photos to foster distinct "Chicago" and "Illinois" identities."

The photo we selected to run with this post, of two toilets in an open bathroom next to each other, most likely falls in the "Illinois" identity.
