Printers Row and the South Loop is the least sketchy place you can be. It’s actually diverse, unlike a lot of the northern neighborhoods, but is friendly, community-driven and pretty quiet.

Love printers row. Should be totally fine.

Nothing sketchy south of Congress. The SRO by the LaSalle El station has a motley crew, but that's Printer's Row adjacent

Found a random engagement ring.

Hi all, so I found a platinum ring (which I assumed it's an engagement ring as it has dates and initials engraved on top.) And a Divvy tag (I have no idea what it was until I googled it. Apparently it's a bike sharing service in Chicago) in a briefcase I ordered online. I was thinking of returning the item back to the store but that wouldn't help the person who lost the ring. Attached is a picture of them.

What should I do now?
