South Loop is Chicago's Vegas?

Interesting video and bit on yochicago.com about the South Loop:

The South Loop gets a lot attention, but from what we've read it's doing no worse then any other area in Chicago. Obviously it's not a good time to sell given the amount of high rise inventory on the market (especially in the neighborhood), but the video brings up some good points as to why the long-term prospects for the South Loop remain strong (proximity to the center of the city, parks, museums and lakes).
