Plainfield Cruise Nights- Tuesday nights

Anyone want to try to make this a weekly thing? There are a few places to eat that are right on the strip.



Cruise Nights Begin May 31st
Cruise Nights, sponsored by MainStreet Plainfield, Inc., begin on May 31st. Head to Downtown Plainfield on Tuesday evenings, from 5-9 pm, to see a great collection of antique, classic, and vintage vehicles. While you're downtown, do some shopping and enjoy dinner at one of our great restaurants! Cruise Nights continue through September 6th.


The following roadways will be closed for Cruise Nights:

Lockport Street - between Route 126 and Route 59.

Des Plaines Street – From the alley south of the Fire Station to Chicago Street.

Fox River – Access to Lockport Street will be restricted to Cruise Night traffic. Barricades will be placed just south of the intersection at Fox River and Lockport Streets. However, Fox River will remain open.

Illinois Street – Illinois Street will remain open to allow traffic to pass from one side of town to the other; however, barricades will be placed on Lockport Street to prevent traffic on Illinois Street from turning onto Lockport Street. For more information, please contact MainStreet Plainfield, Inc. at (815) 436-5510.

i used to go to every one when i was younger. then when i was working across town i couldn't make it there in time. now that i got transfered closer to home i might be able to start going to these again.

i used to find a spot, pop the hood, then go eat tacos outside on the street at front street cantina watching the cars cruise by.

If I am working from home on Tuesdays I can make it but if I have to start going back into the office I will probably only be able to do like the last hour.

The guy that runs the butcher shop is the organizer, he would like to see us out if possible.

we are in if anyone else is.. we are few miles south on rt 59 in joliet. I'm sure the wife won't mind since it's her car.

yea... its gonna be nice out and i have the day off tomorrow too! bad timing for sure, i wish they started tomorrow.

we should just show up

Anyone thinking about going this week, the 7th?

probably. i show up late though. i don't get off work till like 6:30 or 7. by the time i shower and get out there I'm taking a spot from someone who left. i usually get a bite to eat and a beer out on the street and chill.

i went last week and it was much nicer this year between the outside sidewalk seating at all the restaurant/bars and blocking off the streets to normal cars.

I am probably in for tonight barring any last min conf calls.

I'll be at Up Town or Mojos slurping up some adult beverages.

im leaving my house after i shower. like i said i always show up late.

sorry i didn't socialize with everyone too much tonight. i was having dinner at Finnegans with a couple friends.

We were crushed. We sat over behind our cars and cried.....

Its cool it was a good time, will have to see about making a weekly thing hopefully.


Carrie and I took some pics I am just being lazy about getting them off my phone.

so i have tomorrow off so I will actually be able to go down there on time tomorrow. anyone else goin?

I'm working so we are not going this week. Most likely next week though

Im not really up for it tonight...

Next week I will be in Vegas for work so will hopefully be out there in three weeks.
