Chicago Tribune Schaumburg Printing Center

‘The Bear’ Is Set in Chicago, But Does That Make it a Chicago Show? | Eater Chicago

"I felt the show used the Chicago Tribune’s Freedom Center more as a plot device than a meaningful location: it’s the press where the paper was printed for 43 years, but that inclusion rings hollow given the press made its last run in May, the Trib will now be published in Schaumburg inside a facility once owned by the Daily Herald, and the Freedom Center building is being vacated to make room for a casino that was announced well before filming began—yet the season treats the site as if it still meaningfully anchors the city’s present." - Ashok Selvam
