Yep. If you're at any kind of traffic time, the Kennedy (the highway from ORD to downtown) gets packed up pretty easily. I'll echo fenger's suggestion of getting off at Clark/Lake. Come up to street level and you'll be on Lake street and a cab to the Drake is pretty quick.

Nitpicky reference, it's the 'L', not El.
