Maybe I’m wrong but something tells me the landlord is also the owner of the firehouse restaurant next doorlanlord was short sighted. dude had another restaurant 2 blocks away, and he wasn't gonna allow himself to be squeezed in a pandemic due to greed.
totally understand why he bounced.
Tried pulling a fast one cuz his other business are struggling during Covid
Up in Skokie and trying Jollibee for the first time
They put hot dog things in their spaghetti
Have not had it since being here in Chicago. My Filipino friends loved it so i had to have it more than i cared for.

yall let the Harold's by the docks close?
damn that place was an anchor over there
man folks let greed stop they thinking, but it also makes me wonder did dude push for too much, or did dude know something else coming down the pipes so he figured he’d lean on harolds and it would be win/win, he either get more rent or opens it up for something else
I can't think of any other line of business that can come close to generating more revenue and turning a profit at that location, especially in that little tight space.
That location isn't worth $10k a month

my house is bigger than that harold's was and I'm only paying $1500 a month for the mortgage. mind you, we are in the exact same neighborhood.
In all seriousness.. We let people who don't have any attachments to the community, f*ck up the community..
So when all the people who make up the tax base of Chatham move, and the community starts looking like Harvey, then what?

Exactly.
Lol cmon breh this is like comparing apples with aardvarks...both start with A, that's about as far as you can go.
Property owner has a lot of leverage bc of location. They probably already have someone else ready to take the space but wanted to try and hit a homerun with Harolds.
Lot of people don't realize just how insanely onerous business leases are on tenants. It's the main reason why coworking took off as an industry. Nowadays many corporate lease agreements are triple net, meaning that the tenant pays rent, insurance, property taxes AND ALL REPAIRS/maintenance

The lessee has to get some type of benefit from this.
They're claiming that harolds went from 7k a month to 10..
Im going to assume the foot traffic is the reasoning behind the pricing..
