@sheepdogpaddy: @Chicago Athletic Association is THEEEEEE hotel in Chicago! It’s a beautifully restored space with so much history and character. It was number one on my list when looking at hotels. Super convenient downtown directly across from the Bean! And a short walk to the Riverwalk and the Navy Pier. Our room was so cute. The details were so well thought through and matched the sports vibe. A spotlight style pendant in the middle of the room to give a boxing ring feel. (Also how rare is it to get a hotel room with overhead lighting, so love 😆) the pommel horse bench was the cutest touch! Their mini bar was almost impossible not to break into with sooo many options of different cocktails and drink options! They had three different places to eat in the hotel, which made it sooo convenient! @Cindy’s Rooftop ALWAYS had a line with outside guests, but staying at the hotel, you get first access! 👏👏👏 Their main lobby has a beautiful library and super fun game room that offers food and cocktails. Then Shake Shack as well! Which you can also order through room service, which you know I did after bed time! 😂 This is a place I would recommend over and over. AND they are pet friendly! 🐾 Can’t wait to go back! #chicago #chicagodowntown #chicagoloop #rivernorth #chicagoathleticassociation #chicagohotel #chicagohotels #illinois #midwest #hyatt #hyatthotels @Hyatt #chicagorecommendations #chitown #chicagoillinois
I belonged there 35 years ago when it was a private club. I would go over after the day trading session, get a workout, get a steam then grab a nap in one of the nap rooms, and go back over to work night bonds. They paid me overtime, gave me a flash cab voucher and bought my dinner. I made so much money the firm promoted me so they didn’t have to pay me overtime.

can someone from a Chicago home depot reach out and explain why 'daylight' bulbs are bad. all the stone would be beautiful if the lights bulbs rendered any color besides blue/green
