All that is walking distance (assuming no rain), except for MSI which is a 15-minute train ride from Michigan/Randolph (

MSI is one of my favorite places on earth. Fantastic museum, one of the best anywhere. My son was basically brought up there. I have been to MSI literally hundreds of times (used to live 12 blocks away). PM me for more if you like.
