2020 Sloopin Business Counter: Despite Covid-19 +2 Net Businesses Opened in 2020

It's not surprising that some of our most popular posts had to do with businesses opening and/or closing in the South Loop.  So before we move on from the dumpster fire that was 2020 we're going to do our annual review of the business counter.  

With the help of Mr. South Loop (THANK YOU!), we've updated our business counter with the following openings and closings.  There is likely some we missed, so if you know of something please let us know.

By our count we had a +2 net of businesses opening in the South Loop.  While that continues a downward trend for the neighborhood (since we started keeping track in 2012) it is frankly better than we expected.  The Covid-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc on small businesses and we applaud/appreciate all of them for continuing to bring their services to the community.  With that said, please support them as much as possible!
