Western Avenue (2400 West) is the longest street in the world. It runs from Howard Street (7600 North) at the border with Evanston all the way down to 119th Street, where it runs into the suburb of Blue Island. Almost 200 blocks of driving fun stretching well over 20 miles! Oops, caught another red light!

A water bottle and tripod serve as stand-ins as Michael emulates Daniel Chester French's statue "the Republic," which stands on the location of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair administration building.
