Mobility With Attitude Report--Logo

Welcome to the MWA Report...


THE guide for gettin your crip ass into the cool places in Chicago!

I started using a chair pretty much full time in February 1996, and had been using a cane before then. I am not about to let it slow me or my social life down, but (as I am sure any of you reading this that are dealing with altered mobility know) getting around to most places REALLY SUCKS!
So I am here to help...cuz sometimes knowing ahead of time what kind of access you will be dealing with ahead of time makes it a little easier.
There will be 2 general ratings for each venue as well as a detailed report following. The rating system is: 1-5. 5 is the worst.

The ratings are:


accessibility iconHow accessible is it really?!

How problematic are the staff/other patrons?!

So, that outta the way. I'll get started ratin'.

Check back often for further reviews. I had originally intended to do this monthly, but it isn't happening, so I will update...errr...sporadically.
Input is welcome...as well as submissions for places to review or reviews of them. I am very aware that I am only reviewing for mobility accessibility at present. I will attempt to start reviewing for other accessibility issues in the not too distant future.

Who am I? I am a queer cripdyke with MS. I am also a web designer, sound designer, graphic designer...check out my company:
