It's sad about Mission Bay, and while I'm not sure they've closed permanently--I haven't been in touch with them, they do have a 'for rent' sign on the window... We could hope for the best, but it would be even better if the DNA or somebody with the city tries to get them back. I like your blog, by the way! Everybody else, check out Jessica's Life in Elgin blog: http://lifeinelgin.com/blog/ Hi Jessica,

Now it's one of the most desirable places to be in Chicago It seems like that SHOULD be possible for Elgin. The flaw in city planning thinking is this: there ARE people here that have money to spend and need convenient and/or specialty shopping. This is indeed an instance of if you build it, they will come. We've got a train station! People from out of town can get here just as easily as they can to a place like Geneva. It just seems to obvious and possibly easier than more and more and more living spaces. I live here and most of my income is spent outside of Elgin because there's not much to be had here, downtown, east side, or west side. I'm waiting...
