Our location. Many aren't aware but behind-the-scenes there's been a renewed sense of working together with a few of our neighbors at 1550 S. State. One example is that we're now providing lunches for some students at
Daystar School. The kids get healthy lunches and we get some increased revenue.
9. Our neighborhood. The South Loop continues to grow and nurture more and more businesses, which means more residents stay in the area and others come to the neighborhood. We're excited to see where the future takes all of us.
