FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE | August 10, 2020<\/strong><\/p>

CHICAGO\u2014<\/strong>Some businesses in the Chicago Loop were damaged last night and early this morning during looting. As Mayor Lori Lightfoot solidifies details for downtown travel restrictions from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m., some Loop businesses that were not damaged have made the decision to temporarily close today.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cCoronavirus alone has presented unimaginable challenges to Loop businesses, which rely on our worker population to stay afloat. Pedestrian activity in the Loop is still down by about 70 percent compared to the same time last year, as many people continue working from home,\u201d said Chicago Loop Alliance President and CEO Michael Edwards. \u201cWith now two waves of property damage on top of COVID-19, these businesses really need Chicago\u2019s support. We have an online tool at <\/span>LoopChicago.com\/WhatsOpen<\/span><\/a> with information about dining, shopping, attractions and more. The Loop is <\/span>everyone\u2019s neighborhood<\/span><\/a>, where Chicagoans from every zip code come together, and we all need to work together to be sure the Loop remains vibrant and strong for everyone to enjoy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Businesses in the Loop damaged by looting include: Block 37 (108 N. State St.), Foot Locker (219 S. State St.), Macy\u2019s (111 N. State St.), Nando\u2019s Peri-Peri (22 S. Wabash Ave.), Staples (111 N. Wabash Ave.), Target (1 S. State St.) and Wedding Bands (2 N. Wabash Ave.).<\/span><\/p>

Businesses in the Loop closed on Aug. 10 include: The Art Institute of Chicago (111 S. Michigan Ave.), Grant Park Bistro (800 S. Michigan Ave.), Land & Lake Kitchen (81 E. Wacker Drive), Sugar Bliss Patisserie (122 S. Wabash Ave.) and UNIQLO (22 N. State St.).<\/span><\/p>

Chicago Loop Alliance is coordinating board-up services between Loop businesses and the City of Chicago Department of Buildings. Chicago Loop Alliance\u2019s Street Ambassadors and Security Patrols will maintain a 24-hour presence in the Loop for the foreseeable future.
