Public meeting places around Chicago
Bank branches and police department exchange spots near a ZIP code, nearest first. A list, not a recommendation: where two people meet is entirely up to them.
Your browser asks first. If you allow it, the list is worked out on this device and your location is not sent to KowskiCars or kept.
About this list
The bank branches are every full-service, brick and mortar branch in Illinois within 60 miles of the Loop, from the FDIC's public BankFind data (index dated 2026-09-18, copied 2026-09-23). That data carries no opening hours.
The police spots are ones a suburban department describes on its own website. Hours and rules are quoted from that page and dated. None of them has been confirmed by phone yet. 10 of the 13 spots have an outdoor space or lot. The indoor lobby spots in Joliet, Oak Park and Bensenville are left out of the results, because there is nowhere there to hand over a car.
The Chicago Police Department does not publish an exchange spot page, so no Chicago police district is listed.
Being on this list does not mean anyone at the place watches, checks or takes part in a sale.
The paperwork side of a sale is on what Illinois asks for after a private sale.
