River North

Chicago's gallery district in the River North neighborhood is just a few blocks from Michigan Avenue and if you're shopping for original art, this is your bliss among the former warehouses turned exhibition spaces. If the creme de la creme of furniture and home decor is calling, you're a few blocks from the Merchandise Mart and furniture showrooms. Don't miss The Golden Triangle, an 18,000 square foot global design resource featuring hand-selected vintage and modern furnishings from around the world. The Bloomingdales Home Store in the former Medinah Temple is four levels of luxury home furnishings set in the distinctive historic building. Treat yourself to chocolate in the new neighbor, L.A. Burdick, and P.O.S.H. has been enchanting locals and visitors for years with its flea market finds, hotel silver and French kitchen accessories.
