I have not been to Chicago in 30 years and can't find 1 reason to ever go back to that S-Hole place.
Didn't like then after pulling into a secure underground parking garage and still almost got mugged. The attendant came out with a ballbat and chased two men out.

2 miles further to St Louis from here but you wouldn't know it because there is less traffic.
