MARTHA ON THE MOVE
Fall/Winter, 2007
This column came about as a result of my driving the neighborhood and finding new and interesting places. What is a secret find? It could be a new retail store, restaurant or a unique business in the area.
From eco-friendly to chic, West Loop boutiques have you covered!
PIVOT - An eco-smart boutique located at 1101 W. Fulton Market showing fashion lovers over 25 different designers in organic cotton, bamboo, soy and recycled materials. Designs are eco-friendly and stylish ~ a fashionable win-win!
TRIBECA - Once a staple in the hip Lincoln Park retail scene, this boutique is the perfect spot for finding a "fun, going out top" or a chic, cocktail dress. Accessorize with jewelry and handbags. Stop in and check out the "wallet friendly prices" at 1035 W. Madison.
2 SISTERS - Do you find yourself going over to your best friend's house to raid her closet? Make your closet the envy of your social circle at prices you can afford! You'll always find something different at this 1167 W. Madison boutique. The best part? The owners really are sisters!
KOROS - Don't forget our first retail boutique in the West Loop - they're celebrating 2 years on October 25, 2007!
Foodies rejoice! Two new restaurants open their doors in West Loop!
MACELLO - Can't get to Italy? Try Macello for some of the best southern Italian food in the city! Back in the 1940's, the building used to be a slaughter house. The owner wanted to keep the integrity of the building through design and decor. Check out Macello today at 1235 W. Lake Street.
WEST END BAR & GRILL - Check out the 32 plasma-screen TV's with Direct TV HD. Dine on pizza, Australian lamb chops, honey-spice roasted chicken or the popular Skillet Cookie dessert! Beer lovers and wine drinkers will also find a great selection! Stop in to the new location at 1326 West Madison!
Pamper your pooch!
PET CARE PLUS - This is the place of every dog's dreams! Completely renovated, Pet Care Plus is your dog's home-away-from-home for all of their daycare, boarding and grooming needs (dog walking and in-home needs are available too)! There's even an inground pool for the summer months! Check it out!
