The Sun-Times leads with the good news from a newly-issued report from the Chicago Loop Alliance: a growing residential population, more hotel rooms, parks and tourists.
And jobs in the Loop?
What the Loop has lost is jobs. State figures show it had 338,000 private-sector jobs in 2000, yet the 2010 total was 275,000. The decade covered two recessions that slashed the demand for office space.
Nearly 20% fewer private-sector Loop jobs in just a decade? Are Loop jobs going the way of dinosaurs?
