This is what the article says: Cordoning off stretches of road around Grant Park and Congress Plaza, including a key stretch of Congress Parkway between Michigan Avenue and Wabash Avenue, for nearly three weeks.does that translate to one block? I don't really know. Just sharing what I saw in the Tribune today.

Well that's not as bad then though it's still likely to spread out to the surrounding blocks, especially during the actual draft week. "Free use of the Auditorium Theatre and other spaces owned by Roosevelt University from April 19 to May 6, free WiFi and other technology for the NFL and its partners at all locations and free parking for NFL staff, TV crews and production trucks." The draft is the 30th to the 2nd - basically a week and a half to set everything up/media hype and another 4 days after for wrap up. This is what the article says: Cordoning off stretches of road around Grant Park and Congress Plaza, including a key stretch of Congress Parkway between Michigan Avenue and Wabash Avenue, for nearly three weeks.does that translate to one block? Look at the picture again. There aren't any streets between Wabash and Michigan. It is, in fact, one block.

Yeah but it says "including" a key stretch between Michigan and Wabash, not only that stretch. I mean whatever, at this point its all schematics and I doubt anyone really knows - the Tribune bit is probably the most reliable but I have a feeling that's only the "main" area they're outlining. Point still remains, just varying degrees of shitiness.

I thought they moved the draft to Kraft's basement. No, no. That's the location of the after party.
