City Hatter

I was walking on Michigan Ave. this morning, when I saw the signs in the windows of Cith Hatter: EVERYTHING MUST GO. 20 to 40% OFF. This is not a good sign of things to come. City Hatter was in business about a year, with one of the best looking storfronts on the street. Now, in its place, we will most likely be getting a vacent building. What the downtown area needs is foot traffice, that will stop in the stores and spend money. Then the city will have a downtown to be proud of.

I cant disagree with that but how does one go about getting foot traffic?

if the city didn't have 7 tax offices and 3 questionable restaurant options downtown, that would be a start.
how about a couple new restaurants and maybe a place to buy good wine, cheese, and meats?
