If you are wondering about all those new condominiums they are talking about in the article, check this out.  This is one of many but is of course the most spectacular.

The "president" of B&O should shave, methinks!

I quite like Chicago, and really liked the store on Oak St., I usually stay in or around Water Tower Place (North Michigan Ave.), any idea where the new store is in relation... i.e. would it be within walking distance.

The B&O store is about a 7 blocks from the Water Tower.  Walk south on Michigan avenue to Ohio street and then turn right (west) and walk about 3 short blocks to the store.  There are plenty of hotels and shops near the B&O store.

Glad to see it has opened. I look forward to visiting it my next trip to Chicago next month. It will be nice to once again have two stores in the Chicago area, both downtown and the Glenview store at Abt Electronics.

Cool, must be very near to Bloomingdales Home then, must remember that for the future.

Wow!  You know the area fairly well.  There is a large Nordstrom's nearby also.
