The 6400 block of South King Drive, known locally as O Block after murder victim Odee Perry, had the most shootings of any block in Chicago between June 2011 and June 2014. Many of these shootings occurred in 2011-12, and city police report that violence at the complex has steadily declined since.

Chicago is known for many nicknames: the Windy City, Chi-town, the City of Big Shoulders. But one nickname–The Second City–has seen quite an evolution over the years.
