Oldest first, from the City of Chicago’s licence record. A closing year is the year the licence lapsed, which trails the day the door shut — often by many months.

Watch Loop.
Everything above is the record as it stands today. Get an email when a new restaurant licence appears in Loop, and nothing at all in the weeks when none does. It covers openings only: a closure takes about three years to surface fully in the public record, and we will not send an alert we cannot stand behind.
What the block does not tell you
A block that has turned over often is worth knowing about before signing on it, but the count on its own is not a verdict — a busy corridor churns partly because it is busy. The read scores a specific concept for a specific operator against one storefront's own record, which is the question this page cannot answer.
