And does this have a good chance of getting pass zoning?

I have no idea how you could consider the South Loop underserved. The article made it seem like Dunn was talking about grocery stores, which is laughably untrue with a Marianos, TJs, Jewel and Target plus another Jewel across the river.
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.
