Lost blue Warby Parker glasses case
Lost a blue Warby Parker case with glasses inside -- frames are blue-green, lenses are progressives (bifocals) -- at the Music Box Theater in Chicago, IL in Row BB on Dec. 31st at approximately 6 pm. Reported the loss to the theatre, but no luck so far. Hoping a Good Samaritan might have found them.
Gold chain necklace with glass pendant
I lost a 16" gold chain necklace with a gold-color glass pendant on 1.7.26 while walking south on Sheffield Ave from Addison to North Ave around 8:00am. I also walked on Broadway, W. Sheridan and Fremont to get to Sheffield from Irving Park.
Black rectangular Warby Parker glasses with blue case
I lost my black rectangular Warby Parker glasses yesterday around 3:15 pm near the Art Institute of Chicago on Michigan Ave. They’re black plastic frames with a subtle tortoiseshell pattern on the inside of the arms, and there’s a tiny dent near the right hinge. They came with a blue fabric case that has a bright green zipper pull—hard to miss if you’re cleaning out your bag. These glasses are essential for my day-to-day—I use them for work and reading—and they were a gift from my sister last year, so I’m really hoping to get them back. If you found them, please drop a note here.
Black leather briefcase with initials tag
I lost my black leather briefcase yesterday around 3pm near the Millennium Park entrance on Columbus Drive. It's a slim Coach briefcase, about 14 inches wide and 11 inches tall, with a brass zipper and a tiny scuff on the lower front corner. The inside has a bright red lining and a couple of important papers, plus a small brass plate on the outside engraved 'A.K.' and a leather luggage tag that says 'Property of A. Kim.' This briefcase means a lot to me—it contains my late grandmother's recipe notebook and a few personal photos. If anyone turned it in or sees it, please reach out; I really need it back.
Leopard gecko, yellow with brown spots
I lost my leopard gecko yesterday around 3pm. He’s a small, bright yellow gecko with brown spots and a chunky tail, about 4 inches long, and he has a distinctive white speck under his chin plus a notch on the tip of his left hind toe. He lives in a 6x8 inch glass terrarium with a heat lamp; the lid has a tiny dent from a fall. I was by the Lincoln Park Conservatory area on Stockton Drive when he slipped out, and I’ve been scouring the area since. He’s been with me since I adopted him as a rescue; I’m really hoping to get him back—he’s the goofy, calming presence in my week.
Blue reflective dog leash with LED lights
I found a blue reflective dog leash with built-in LED lights this afternoon around 3:15 pm near the Lincoln Park Conservatory on Fullerton Ave in Chicago. It is about 6 feet long, made of sturdy nylon, with a bright blue color and a reflective stripe along the length. There’s a small white paw-print charm hanging from the handle and a tiny tag engraved with 'Milo'—the name is a bit faded. The leash looks lightly used but in good condition, with no fraying. I can imagine someone is missing it and would be really grateful to get it back; it would be a lifeline for their walks with Milo.
Black leather Tumi briefcase with brass hardware
I found a black leather Tumi briefcase this afternoon around 3:15 pm outside Union Station, Canal Street entrance in Chicago. It's about 15 inches wide with brass hardware and a small scuff on the lower corner; inside is gray lining with a removable laptop sleeve and a faded name tag. Notable markers include a tiny red thread repair on the bottom edge and a lightly used TSA-style lock. I’m glad to help, and I’d love to return it to its owner—ping me in the app if this sounds like yours.
Giro cycling helmet, navy with white accents
I found a matte navy Giro cycling helmet this afternoon around 3:15 pm by the Lakefront Trail entrance near Oak Street Beach in Chicago. It's a size M, with a white stripe pattern and a small scuff on the left temple. Inside, someone wrote the initials 'DP' on the red foam pad. The chin strap is present and the buckle works. I picked it up from the pavement near the bike racks along the path, hoping to help the owner get it back.
