@peterawolf @Eric_Erins No McCormick across the street

@Eric_Erins Don’t they use it for the Auto Show?

Do Chicagoans have strong feelings about Lakeside Center? How often is it used any convention I’ve been to at McCormick never uses it

@BarstoolPU I would spend it at the concession stands.

Say you had $20M to spend on Purdue Athletics. How are you spending that money?

2238 N Wayne Ave’s days are numbered. Sold to a developer as a teardown. More of the same old here in Lincoln Park. People are drawn to the historic charm then kill it.

Purdue’s Braden Smith is now the NCAA’s all-time assist leader‼️ He passes Duke legend Bobby Hurley with assist No. 1,077 👏

I’m not sure why Iran is choosing these type of attacks?

@JHudsontraffic @SPOTNEWSonIG Whoa lots of progress on the marina on the north side of Navy Pier. Is that going to open this summer?

Friday! 🙂

@chicagobars @chicagotribune @RobertChannick @yuenglingbeer @VillageTap Great news!

Upon information and belief (specifically this long @chicagotribune @RobertChannick story) @yuenglingbeer will start pouring at @VillageTap later this week and hundreds of other places too. #FreePlug #StopAskingMe chicagotribune.com/2025/01/27/yue…

When Florida State's Braden Fiske received a windfall in the new collegiate sports economy, he resisted the urge to spend it on cars and clothes. Instead, he poured six figures into his investment accounts. He's about to have a whole lot more to invest. on.wsj.com/3Wee50s

@RoadandTrack Once supercharged a Civic in my friend’s garage without much work which I thought was pretty cool!

Do you like superchargers or turbochargers more?

@zaphod58 @CostaLefty65147 @jonostrower @theaircurrent That’s fair

@doug997 @CostaLefty65147 @jonostrower @theaircurrent Boeing is responsible for any new aircraft incidents. But people are blaming them for aircraft that have been in service for years that are obvious maintenance failures.

The focus of the investigation into an inflight upset aboard a LATAM Boeing 787-9 on March 11 has centered on the movement of a flight deck seat, two people briefed on the incident tell @theaircurrent. theaircurrent.com/feed/dispatche…

@zaphod58 @CostaLefty65147 @jonostrower @theaircurrent Maybe the most recent incidents, but MCAS is on Boeing.

@CostaLefty65147 @jonostrower @theaircurrent The only thing Boeing has been responsible for was the Max 9 door plug. Everything else has been planes that were years old. In some cases 20+ years old. That's not Boeing, that's the airline and maintenance provider.

Century-old Loop towers top Preservation Chicago’s most endangered list for third year, joined by birthplace of Butternut bread and a Cabrini-Green mural. More from @RobertChannick trib.al/oia7QHT

@NiseiLounge A massive glassed in area in the Vegas desert doesn’t seem like a good idea.

Hope the Sydney Opera House architect is getting royalties on that sucker.

@PurdueBME @PurdueToday Add some pics of the textiles!

A BME team led by Chi Hwan Lee has developed multicolor electroluminescent threads for use with standard embroidery machines. This enables manufacturers to stitch their designs on consumer fabrics without degrading the textiles’ wear resistance and light-emitting properties. #BME
