On the corner of 50th and York, just across from the park and next to the Korean church is MorYork. There's no signs and you can only get in if the front door is open, but if it is, go! It's the home of artist Claire Graham and one of the most amazingly bizarre collection of found/assemblage art in the country.

Entertainment & Activities
Check out the retro steam punk inspired Highland Park Bowl over on Fig. It's hard to describe just how cool this spot is even if bowling isn't your thing. Just a heads up though, you do pay a premium for the experience. This ain't your dads bowling alley.
