Initial details have been shared for a potential new high-speed rail connection between downtown Chicago and O’Hare International Airport. Dubbed the ‘O’Hare Flyer,’ the train aims to take passengers between the two in just 15 minutes, becoming the newest attempt to create a faster direct connection to one of the world’s busiest airports.

Plans for an upcoming residential development at 5854 North Broadway are moving forward after receiving funding approval from the Chicago City Council. Located mid-block between West Thorndale Avenue and West Ardmore Avenue in Edgewater, the project has been in the works for over three years and is set to replace a one-story building and its parking lot.
