THEA CALDINI

WHO: Regional Retail Director, David Yurman (40 E. Oak St., 312-787-7779; davidyurman.com). HOME ’HOOD: “The South Loop. We have everything at our fingertips—great food resources, museums, and fabulous world-class entertainment, shopping, and lifestyle activities, all with easy access to the lake.” GO-TO SPOT: “Jazz Showcase (Dearborn Station, 806 S. Plymouth Ct., 312-360-0234; jazzshowcase.com). The entertainment is diverse, and the most avid music lovers gather there. It’s easy to bump into a jazz legend just relaxing and jamming to the band. Plus, I can walk home!” HIDDEN GEM: “The view of Lake Michigan and the skyline from the park behind Montrose Harbor. It’s such a peaceful scene, and a nice place to think or just appreciate life in Chicago.” CONSTANT CRAVING: “Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria (multiple locations; loumalnatis.com). Nothing compares.” FAVE ARCHITECTURE: “The Wrigley Building (400 N. Michigan Ave.) and the Tribune Tower (435 N. Michigan Ave.) across the street. I love the neo-gothic feel [of the Tribune Tower], and the fact that it took only two years from construction to opening is extraordinary.” SUMMER PLANS: “Enjoying the festivals, spending time with family and friends outdoors, EXPO Chicago (September 13–17, Navy Pier, 312-867-9220; expochicago.com)... and the new David Yurman store opening!” ULTIMATE INDULGENCE: “Chicago ‘B&b’—boating and barbecuing.”
