"A new retail cannabis shop is planned for 612 N. Wells Street (the former Carson’s Ribs) in River North, developed by GRI Holdings — a group that includes restaurateur Phil Stefani; a spokesperson clarified Stefani is not an owner of the advisory company whose branding the shop will use. The storefront is among the first tranche of Chicago’s newly licensed dispensaries and is part of a growing crossover between the city’s hospitality scene and its expanding dispensary market." - Naomi Waxman
