^ Right. Why would manufacturing want to open up in tight urban locations with access challenges when the suburbs offer cheaper land and more of it? I think the ship has sailed on industrial uses in Chicago, outside of certain industries that benefit from being in the city like printing, food/produce distribution, building materials and fabrication, etc.
Of course, the city contains multitudes and there is tons of land for manufacturing in city limits down around Calumet...
