I mean don’t the Americans have a lot of really long streets all full of housing? Also note the one closed permanently being off the line.
While that is true, there are 2 things to unpack here: 1. Typically housing is zoned in different locations to businesses so this has no correlation. 2. This map is so big that none of those stores are actually in Chicago. They are all in the suburbs and it would literally take you 1.5 - 3 hours to get from the southern most one to the northern most one. They’re all a lot farther apart than you may realize.
None I’m aware of. Certainly not in Chicago, lived there a couple of years. There’s a half-mile straight run of houses in my neighborhood back home, but that’s unusual and only because it was originally an airstrip.
A long, straight road like that is going to be zoned commercial, no houses at all. Flip that around and a Hobby Lobby can’t be in a residential zone.
Hard to say, but smuggling artifacts is probably involved. They’re big fans.
One time Hobby Lobby bought part of the Epic of Gilgamesh that had previously gone missing to display at a Christian convention or some shit
In spite of their highly visible Christian facade, I suspect it is secretly run by witches and you’ve identified the main ley-line through the area.
I imagine hobby lobby, with their illegal artifact collecting, is a Christian sect which does believe in magic and the power of other religions. They use Christian geomancy to find the holy Spirit without identifying it as a ley line.
There must be a lot of Hobby Lobbyists in the area.
