Lots of discussion here about the rooftop bar. There has been chatter on the Chicago subreddit about serious backstage problems there, to wit:
"I worked there during the first 3 months it was open...I've worked in a lot of restaurants and I've never been around such an unsafe, immoral, and sexist establishment."
"I work in another hotel in the area and one of our staff left us to help open London House months ago. Word is he also jumped ship from there only after a couple months of operation."
Etc.

Nice view, lousy karma, it sounds like.
