When: March 9, 2016; 5:30 – 7 p.m.

South Loop Neighbors’ Night Out - A Monthly Community Development Happy Hour

Greater South Loop Association (GSLA) will host Neighbors’ Night Out, March 9, 2016 at Vice District Brewing, 1454 S. Michigan Ave. for anyone wanting to meet up and be part of the neighborhood’s future. Each month will have a general topic, and we’ll invite relevant speakers to share some thoughts and be part of the dialogue. These sessions will also help the Greater South Loop Association fulfill its role as a conduit for neighborhood input on important community development issues. This month’s topic: real estate development.



There’s no charge to attend (of course, the bar is open!) but GSLA asks that you register so they can have a sense of how many people will be in attendance.
