Like in NY I would eat at Jean Georges (sp?) which leases space in the Trump hotel on Central Park. The restaurant is not affiliated w face fuck, and signed the lease when he was still just a two bit hustler. But staying at the hotel now? Unless it’s some kitsch thing, or a blogger looking for material; I do not get it.

It’s too expensive for the MAGA hat crowd, at least the stereotype. And the billionaires he actually helped would be slumming to stay there. They’d be at the Langham, a few floors up from Hank, but here.

Still, the Trump is pretty full. And I know, because, consistent with Trumpian taste, the glass walled hotel is parking deck up to the sixth floor. I can see a pretty full parking level out my window. NWTAF?

That parking deck is probably mostly parking for the condo owners (a decent portion of that building consists of condos).

You live there? Above or below the TRUMP? We could have met up!

I do not. In the burbs now (for 10 years!). In fact, I've only been to the city once since Covid started. Pre-covid I'd be there about twice a week. I've been in the burbs for so long I'm scared to go to the city because I'm sure I'll get mugged. Also I'm a minority in Cook County and that frightens me.



But you're in a great spot for a river/lakefront run.
