Tought I'd start a post where locals with news/knowledge about it can share their views: Sir: First off I am a fan and loyal follower of your work & that of the Tiki culture. I look forward to to your email newsletter weekly. We are designing and building a 12000 sq ft restaurant and bar in a suburb of Chicago. I though you may want to get a first look at the building. This is a computer rendering of the building on the actual site. You should be able to tell where we're going with the design of this building. Palm trees inside and out, and a 2500 gallon black tip shark tank in the bar. Let me know if you have any interest in knowing more about it. The name of the place is also going through a change. Keep up the great work on Tiki! Ed

If/when the building is built I would love to take photos of the outside to share with TC! Could you find out what suburb it's going to be in?
