It appears that @Chicago_Police are anticipating potential insurrection outside the Fulton Market Foxtrot in light of recent news.
platonic ideal of this for me is Barriques in the Madison area. they successfully do what I think Starbucks was trying to do with the "after dark" thing. coffee shop that serves wine and has cafe food into the evening.

Fascinating to see what Canva has done with their acquisition of remove.bg from 2021. I'm guessing it powers in-platform background removal... But they've also let the site (w/ 60M monthly visits 🤯) run standalone, with a button to take every design to Canva.
