Target

Chicago


The big-box retailer's downtown store sits in the landmark Sullivan Center building. It's a bit more upscale than the usual Target and it's a prime place to pick up picnicking items (basket, blanket, paper plates, drinks, snacks) and other Chicago necessities (umbrella, warm hat, souvenirs). Upmarket sandwich chain Pret A Manger is inside, too.
