The South Loop borders The 78 just east, connecting us to Grant Park and Lake Michigan.
A 20-minute stroll puts you in the heart of the museum campus, home to the Field Museum, Adler Planetarium and Shedd Aquarium.
Entirely walkable, enjoy South Loop’s beaches and green spaces by day, and local favorite restaurants, taverns, ale houses and blues clubs after the sun goes down.
