A walk around the neighborhood
A Tour of 9th & 9th with the Whale
Fifteen stops west along 900 South, in the order you would actually walk them, with the Whale reading each one wrong on purpose.
Original fiction inspired by the Whale and its neighborhood.
The places, addresses, and links are the documented ones from A Whale's field guide to 9th & 9th, last checked August 3, 2026. The readings are ours. None of these businesses sponsor, endorse, or are affiliated with Whale Fortunes.
Walking west along 900 South, starting at the Whale
Meet at the roundabout
The Whale is at 900 South and 1100 East. Stay on the sidewalk. The roundabout is live traffic and the Whale would rather keep you.
From there the walk goes west. Hours and tenants change and the Whale has never once checked a posted one, so treat every stop as a thing to walk past rather than a place promised to be open.
Fifteen stops, about eight blocks, all downhill in one direction and uphill in the other. Go at your own pace, or read it from the couch.
