He delves into the soul of the city

That, we’re told, is what Mark Konkol is doing in the new Sun-Times blog that “lasers in” on Neighborhoods.

YoChicago will stick to the gritty, glittering, multi-faceted surface. No soul-delving lasering here.

Konkol, we’re told, “puts the spotlight on interesting people with interesting stories.” We’ll stick to introducing you to all sorts of Chicagoans. We think they’re all interesting.

The Sun-Times Neighborhoods will also bring you a “small detail photo of a Chicago icon” to test your city knowledge. We’ll continue to bring you the big pictures and the free t-shirts.
