Well it looks awful. And they tore down a vintage building for it. Classic Chicago
Nothing Lasts Forever, i liked the old building better
There were cracks in the facade of the old building. I wonder if it had structural issues.
Nah they just wanted larger display windows and HVAC air con for the workers.
HORRIBLE – who allowed this on Oak Street?!?!
