Shake Shack is planning to open a location inside Sears Tower, Chicago’s tallest skyscraper and the United States’ tallest. It’ll be the New York-based fast-food chain its fifth location in the city.
Shake Shack should start serving burgers and concretes to tourists and Loop workers sometime in 2019 inside the base of the tower, according to the Tribune. It’s part of a large-scale plan for the former Sears Tower which will extend the lower floor by 300,000 square feet and fill it with bars, restaurants, retail, and entertainment. (MORE HERE)
Love Shake Shack. I can’t see going to this one unless friends or family are visiting from out of town but some pretty cool stuff going in at the Sears Tower. Check out this video of the WKQX and LOOP lunch squad at the Ohio Street location from a few years ago below.
