There's a new way to get your fix of neighborhood news in Chicago.

DNAinfo Radio is now streaming on our site, bringing you the news of Chicago's neighborhoods, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

You can launch the audio stream via the new button at the top of our site. Or by clicking here.

News Director Jon Hansen will bring you in-depth news from around the city, as reported by our team of neighborhood reporters. He'll also have neighborhood features, interviews and more.

And this is just the start. As DNAinfo Radio progresses, we'll feature on-demand news from your neighborhood, allowing you to cater our coverage to your specific 'hood.

And soon we'll have apps available for mobile devices.

DNAinfo Radio is another way for us to get our unique content out to you, and it's another way for local merchants to reach their neighbors.

Hansen joins DNAinfo Chicago with a wealth of experience, with previous posts at Clear Channel, 24-7 Source News and Total Traffic. He has reported for WBBM Newsradio and WGN-AM radio and serves as a fill-in public address announcer for the Chicago Blackhawks at the United Center.  

And it won't be just Jon. He'll draw from our deep bench of talent, featuring reporters and editors in segments throughout the week.

So, please, listen in and hear what's happening around town. No one covers Chicago's neighborhoods like DNAinfo Chicago.
