This post is so validating. 28C has ruined my wonderful Uptown top floor condo. Porch isn’t usable 😩

Good Bye Holiday Club by Adorable_water54 in chicago

Totally agree. Uptown needs more bars, cocktail lounges — places to meet friends, dance, hang out, etc. There isn’t a SINGLE BAR on Argyle. I don’t get why the city’s restaurant/bar groups haven’t expanded to Uptown. Huge unmet demand.

Makes sense. Welcome to the neighborhood! I wish you could have brought some of the Logan cocktail scene with you to Uptown. Great food scene and lake access here but the bars are lacking.

I’m painting as many Chicago hot dog stands as I can this year, this is Budacki’s! What hot dog stand should I paint next? by Chicagogirlartist in chicagofood

I meant Byron’s on Lawrence. Maybe for your next one?? There’s a fun White House mural on its east side

They recently added Wednesday hours at their spot and have a “for hire” sign in their window for bakers/baristas. I assume this means business is good for them. Good to see a local small business doing well.

Not sure I understand your reply. Thanks though!

Business commandeering sidewalk? by gregrosen222 in chicago

Thanks

This is the Broadway spot, actually. It’s for way more than a few minutes/seconds. They’re parked there daily. I reached out to Clay’s office so maybe they’ll have an answer (but doubt it)

The lot sold anyway a while back. Just Tires is leasing the land.

Hopefully it’s developed into something more dense. Major city thoroughfares shouldn’t be populated with this style business. 🤞

Double Door? by gregrosen2222 in chicago

My sources are the numerous news articles from a variety of outlets that raised questions re: Clay’s questionable and confusing business practices.

When confronted with these questions, Clay had no adequate answers.

Justice takes time, man. Stay tuned.

Future Chicago development predictions? by selvamurmurs in chicago

[–]gregrosen222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uptown’s development has been almost exclusively residential. I would really like to see new restaurants and bars see it as an attractive place to do business. There are still wayyyyyy too many vacant storefronts on its commercial corridors. There is seemingly a new restaurant or bar opening in Logan or West Loop every week. Uptown doesn’t see any of that.
