We've worked there several times over the past two months and can vouch for how beautiful, functional and versatile the space is. Swing by Tuesday to see N25 for yourself, sip a cocktail and network with the @parkridgechamber and the rest of the community.

Fantastic and much-needed escape with the family l Fantastic and much-needed escape with the family last night to @ziassocial in Norwood Park. Calamari, wood-fired pizza, 8-finger cavatelli with Italian sausage, cocktails and good ol’ chicken parmesan. Noteworthy: The generous portion of chicken parm, a menu staple that could probably feed three people, is only $14 on Tuesdays. #therealparkridge #italianfood #patioseason #chickenparm
