Paterno.....It is neat just do the City at night, During the holidays..I have never been to that, but I am sure it is done RIGHT. If I can be of any help shoot me a email. If you are looking for things to do with the Kids etc............G.
It is worth checking out. I would hit Michigan Ave also for some window shopping. Downtown Chicago is incredible during Christmas time. Chance of snow this weekend so dress warm out there.
