Amazing Free Game Room, and rooftop restaurant views! If you do end up going, send me a message and I'll send you a radio documentary walking tour I wrote about Grant Park that includes a fun stop at the Athletic Association where Chicago's turn-of-the-century tycoons brokered the future of the lakefront.
