What's Happening to Restaurants and Nightclubs in America's Oldest Gayborhood — Boystown
In Eater's first-ever documentary, 'Boystown', writer and editor Zach Stafford explores the changing identity of America's oldest gayborhood through its bars, restaurants, and bakeries. A confluence of factors — including gentrification and the commodification of the queer lifestyle — has led to the disappearances of queer-centric spaces across the country, and Zach's investigation of this one neighborhood sheds a light on much broader trends.
Eater is the one-stop-shop for food and restaurant obsessives across the country. With features, explainers, animations, recipes, and more — it’s the most indulgent food content around. So get hungry.

Welcome back to Q-We Channel again, this is the last Episode of our Journey to Chicago.
We visited the Boystown, which is the gay district in Chicago. I was a bit amazing how big it actually is. Many different shops, restaurants and cool places. I am glad that we found time to visit it. Afterwards, we went back to Navy Pier to have a walk, had great dinner in the Cantonese cuisine and enjoy the night view of the city.

Things to Do in Chicago | 6/24/2014 | Concierge Picks | Chicago Travel
Hello! I'm Anthony Gates, Concierge at the JW Marriott Chicago, and this week's concierge correspondent. I have your Concierge Picks for the busy week of June 24 -- 30. Let's dive into it!
The annual Chicago Gospel Music Festival, one of the only free admission gospel festivals in the world, takes place at the Chicago Cultural Center and Ellis Park June 27th through the 29th. The highlight of the festival will be the McDonald's Inspiration Celebration Gospel Tour, hosted by comedian Jonathan Slocumb and Erica Campbell, one half of the multi-award-winning gospel duo Mary Mary. Audiences can expect to hear performances by the always-exuberant Mississippi Mass Choir and Uncle Reese, who blends gospel and hip-hop with stage drama. While the Chicago Cultural Center is downtown, Ellis Park is located at 37th and Cottage Grove in Chicago's historic Bronzeville neighborhood, near the area where modern gospel music was birthed more than 80 years ago. See your concierge for more information.

Finally, on Sunday, June 29, stake your claim along the parade route for the Pride Parade, part of June's Pride Month in Chicago. The parade is held the weekend after Chicago's iconic annual Pride Fest. The parade kicks off at 12 noon from Broadway and Montrose going along a four-mile route. My tips for the best viewing? For the liveliest, head to Halsted St. between Belmont & Grace Streets in the heart of Boystown. For a less crowded area, head to the beginning of the parade on Broadway between Montrose and Sheridan. Bar and restaurant celebrations follow the parade and continue throughout the night. See your concierge for more information and be a part of the festivities in Boystown!

Route begins on Broadway Ave. at Montrose
