A jog or bike down the Lake Shore Path is a great way to get your blood flowing in the morning.

Millennium Park
It's modern design meets the Chicago skyline meets Grant Park.
Threadless Store
Home of the famous Threadless t-shirt brand. The belly of the beast.
bow truss
The newest sexiest roaster in the city. Unbeatable coffee.
Longman & Eagle
Amazing food, friendly staff, massive whiskey selection and a new Michelin star.
Big Star
Best Tacos in the city, and right in the heart of the action.
