Its possible that Dunn was talking about entertainment, there does seem to be a relative scarcity of bars and restaurants in the South Loop. But I think that’s how the residents like it. I guess from the standpoint of “stadium adjacent development” it isn’t ideal.
Dunn didn't call it 'underserved' he called it "Dramatically Underserved". Just more hyperbole from a flim flam man. Also isn't an entertainment district going to compete with the city's long term effort to create the Motor Row district?
