Is this really by FLATS, the budget apartment rehabber with a spotty record? On LaSalle Street?? Surprised to see that happen. I hope they pull off something decent.
The future of the LaSalle corridor in River North is still very much a blank slate, it would be nice if there was some plan or direction for it to take going forward. With State Street being pretty narrow and choked (it probably needs to become one-way), LaSalle is essentially serves as the grand boulevard for the area, and it also has the CBOT vista. It's probably lucky that it's the last place that River North tower development is spreading to, converging from west and east. The fact there's a 70s style rug shop at 700 north is amusing but it won't be there for long.

Is anybody witnessing the events at Pokepalooza today? I wonder if the bandwidth trainwreck could be a good opportunity for lots of visitors to end up roaming the Riverwalk and discovering all kinds of other parts of the city.
