Walgreens and CVS pharmacies are within two short blocks of the property.

Linea residents have quick access to State Street shops and are only a few minutes from North Michigan Avenue’s Magnificent Mile shops.

Monks Pub, Chicago

Dining, nightlife. There are abundant options in the immediate area, but many cater heavily to office workers and tourists. For those interested in a beer and a burger, Monk’s Pub is located next door to Linea.

Riverwalk, Chicago

Parks, recreation. The expanding Chicago Riverwalk is a block north of Linea. Millennium Park and Grant Park begin a half-dozen to the east, but the Loop is otherwise a park desert.
