A welcome from Juan Esquivel, General Manager

Thank you for shopping at Borders-Lincoln Park, located in the center of two of Chicago's most popular and trendiest neighborhoods--Lincoln Park and Lakeview.

Conveniently located at the intersection of Clark, Broadway and Diversey, after shopping at Borders, you are minutes away from the lakefront, numerous restaurants, museums and parks and if you are a Chicago Cubs fan, Wrigley Field.

Borders-Lincoln Park was one of the first Borders stores to open in Chicago and still maintains its classic charm and warm feeling you expect from a traditional bookstore.

The store is built on three floors filled with great books, music, movies and so much more... you will enjoy getting lost (in a good way) and surrounding yourself with the stories of thousands of people and places you will never experience or meet until you open the front cover. Just when you think it's over, you have to top off your shopping experience with a visit to our Seattle's Best Coffee shop. It features the best coffee in the world along with some pretty terrific pastries and food offerings.

We have a very knowledgeable and friendly group of booksellers who are always willing to help you search for that hard to find book or to suggest a recommendation if you need something new and interesting to read. The next time you are in, stop in and say HI! We look forward to seeing you and exceeding all of your shopping needs and expectations.

This is a compellingly self-deprecating hero, a perfectly rendered setting, and the narrative drive of a top-notch thriller.
