Re: pier, shoreline dr, and the freeway?
There are no streets named "pier" or "shoreline", and Chicago doesn't have any "freeways" - they are all "expressways".

Re: Regina not Melvina
That's pronounced "Rah-GENE-a".

No it's not.
We have the city, you know, Regina, Saskatchewan... the city that rhymes with fun.
Other notable stops if you're touring cross country lofi style is Guelph, Ontario, which is the noise you make after you party.

That's how we pronounce it
Feel free to pronounce it any way you want - in your town.
