Yeah the convention space at Navy Pier was always sorta McPier's forgotten stepchild, isolated in the middle of a tourist trap, like Rosemont Convention Center but much more inconvenient for all intents and purposes.

It works well for Expo, where the artists and dealers want to be right downtown, but not much else.
