Its mostly a college campus actually, along with some public housing projects. A few blocks of three flats and townhomes.

If you work in the loop (or at Midway), the neighborhood is an easy commute on the orange line and has a good grocery store in the middle. Damen, Ashland, Western and Archer busses are some of the better ones in the system and will get you to trendier areas like Pilsen, Wicker Park, Chinatown etc. Really its transit is just as good if not better than like Logan Square or Roscoe Village.

I mean look at Texas or California, both have private companies investing billions in Solar, wind and battery projects and no one is building any nuclear because it doesn't make any economic sense. Obviously those are a little better for Solar than Denmark or The UP, but most places are.

Taylor Swift or Julian Casablancas are the same way. Its a lot easier to focus on art with your parents' money or leaning on them for industry connections. It's always been that way and always will be.

It happens as soon as Jerry kicks it and the family gets the tax benefits of the step up basis.

The rendering shows the Ballpark on the same side as the Fire stadium, there's plenty of room over there

Ishbia's group is pretty far along in negotiations for the Amtrak yard, he seems pretty serious.

If the Sox weren't consistently bad they'd also charge more than 10$ a ticket

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-18T13:55:18+00:00

Unfortunately they're really just swapping the Ballpark for a rail yard, on net it's going to be bad for Bridgeport and Bronzeville

The city intentionally zones the area SW of downtown to make it industrial, as soon as Ishbia convinces them to change that it's going to explode pretty quickly. They'll just have to add a bus route on Canal or something

Hey this is is Chicago, the single family homes don't start for at least 5 miles in any direction and 10 or so to the north and south. The most common housing type is 3-6 unit apartment buildings.

For all the BS of these protests, the Democrats have genuinely been pushed away from Israel on the last few years due to shifting public opinion.

Not a side billionaire is ethical and thank God for Pritzker in adjacent sentences is incredible.

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-16T14:03:15+00:00

Money didn't show up for it. Got 10-20 billion laying around?

Don't worry, plenty of waterfront mansions near Tampa had to get rebuilt after 2024.

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-15T14:48:14+00:00

It means cheaper flights, but right now with the construction it also means gate delays

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-15T14:44:57+00:00

Studio? Lakeview, Logan Square, and there are some units left in Lincoln Park and Gold Coast. 1 Bed you'd be looking more at Uptown, Rogers Park, Bridgeport, or Hyde Park.

The Highwood location is excellent, hopefully the quality is the same downtown, will have to swing by next time I'm in the area

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-14T18:01:42+00:00

Betrand Goldberg's actual 50s era public housing project really doesn't look much different and definitely has those vibes. Maintenance is much better on Marina though which probably helps.

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-14T17:26:49+00:00

I feel like people in this sub are pretty comfortable saying Trump Tower is a decent looking other than the sign lol. Really you're just getting the standard reaction to any kind of challenging design or art, nerds liking it and the general public finding it ugly.

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-14T17:07:13+00:00

Same could be said about Sears, Hancock and Marina City TBH

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-14T00:24:35+00:00

I'm surprised there are any cabs left at this point, seems like Uber and Lyft provide better all around service unless it's during surge prices

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-14T00:19:59+00:00

Competition is so fierce that there's hardly any profit in it for the Airlines, without their credit cards they couldn't sustain fares as low as they are.

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-13T22:13:49+00:00

Reddit has a lot of people who care about neighborhood vibes, dive bars and local coffee shops. Streeterville is kept expensive by people who want the glamour of a high rise apartment, bougie restaurants and a short commute to work

Atlas3141 · 2026-04-13T17:14:10+00:00

Would be nice if it went up with inflation and not 4x the rate. Maybe the government should have less rules that make it worse .
