WICKER PARK — This February will mark two years since music club Double Door — arguably Wicker Park’s most iconic business in recent history — shuttered after a long eviction battle with its landlord.

The 4-story building at 1572 N. Milwaukee Ave., home to Double Door from 1994 to 2017, was sold in June for $9.1 million to CA Ventures, a Loop-based real estate firm.

CA Ventures began to renovate apartments on the three floors above the former music club over the summer, while the lower level remained boarded up — until this week.
Work is underway inside the former Double Door space.
Alisa Hauser/Block Club Chicago

According to sources familiar with the renovations, Austin, Texas-based cooler brand Yeti will be opening a store in the former Double Door spot.

:roll: :puker:

i have a 30L soft shell yeti for road trips and tailgates. got it on sale and after having it for 1.5 years i've concluded i still overpaid.

picked up soft shell coolers a tier under yeti at half the cost for groomsmen gifts and my brothers and cousin have nothing but great thing to say.

the hardshell yeti's make zero sense for anyone other than long-term bush campers/hunters or fishing. they're way too damn heavy for their capacity.

This is pretty much true. I got the cooler and wish I had gotten the soft shell.

The tumblers are still worth every penny.
