Chicago Moves Into Phase 4 of Reopening, Expands Indoor Dining - Eater Chicago
"Plans for the resurrection of iconic Chicago club Double Door continue as the City Council last week approved plans for a move to Uptown. Chicago-based firm Cedar Street aims to redevelop the historic Wilson Theater as part of a development at Wilson and Kenmore and replace its parking lot with a 62-unit apartment building. The legendary Wicker Park club was evicted from its Milwaukee Avenue home in 2017 after 23 years." - Naomi Waxman

"After a long wait, Double Door fans finally have some good news: the storied music venue and bar is definitely still coming to 1050 W. Wilson Avenue in Uptown, according to Block Club. Despite speculation that the project was going nowhere after months of silence, co-owner Sean Mulroney reportedly confirmed the news, and Ald. James Cappleman’s (Ward 46) office reported slow but steady progress on the space." - Naomi Waxman
Iconic Music Club Double Door to Reopen in Uptown - Eater Chicago
"One of Chicago’s most beloved music clubs and bars, Double Door, is officially coming back and is slated to reopen in Uptown on the far North Side. The new site is the former Wilson Avenue Theater, an early 20th century vaudeville venue, which more recently housed a TCF bank." - Daniel Gerzina
The new Double Door, in Uptown, is going to be amazing! It's a giant steaming pile of garbage now and I can't get enough of it. I can't wait until the remodeling begins. It's going to be one of the best venues in the country.
