http://www.geocodezip.com/example_geo2.asp?addr1=245%20W%20Roosevelt%20Rd,%20West%20Chicago,%20IL%2060185&geocode=1

I get 2 different locations for that input address:
[ 0 ]: 245 W Roosevelt Rd, West Chicago, IL 60185, USA (41.8663484,
-88.2076246)
[ 1 ]: 32W245 W Roosevelt Rd, West Chicago, IL 60185, USA (41.88182,
-88.2561501)

Neither one matches up with:
ATI.GoogleMaps.LatLon = new GLatLng(41.86887, -88.209566);

http://www.geocodezip.com/example_geo2.asp?addr1=245%20W%20Roosevelt%20Rd,%20West%20Chicago,%20IL%2060185&geocode=1&addr2=(41.86887,%20-88.209566)&geocode=2

I think you might need to use coordinates that are closer to W.
Roosevelt, currently GDirections thinks the coordinates that you
provide are on Pearl Rd.
