As reader DJG pointed out:
Chicagoans (and those who don’t work downtown): The nearest subway stop would be Grand on the Red Line, although that is about five blocks west of D4 Pub.
The 146 bus is handy for getting to Streeterville. It runs on Michigan Avenue at that point. So does the 148.
Hope to see you at one of these events soon!

Thanks. For the Chicago meetup, D4 notes that its entrance is on Grand Avenue, in spite of the Ohio Street address. I recall having to circle the building the first time I went there.
And the veggieburger is quite good.
Hi DJG, I will have a surgery on the 14th but hopefully will be able to make it. I would love to see you and all of the rest, even if I will have to keep it alcohol-free.
Oh thanks for the reminder, I should have pointed that out and will when I post notices closer to the date.
And OIFVet, hope you can make it, and either way, best wishes for your procedure.
So far, I’ve got three I know will be at the Cleveland Meet-up at Bar Cento. Hope other NE Ohioans will chime in here.
I’m planning to come. PPl should also note that this is a day the West Side Market is open, if you want to load up on groceries.
Hope to attend
Do have a competing mtg that evening w/ Northern Ohioans for Budget Legislation Equality
Very sorry re the conflict. Maybe you can stop by to the NC event on the early or late side.
Thank you, Carla, for helping with the organization of this.
I look forward to meeting you and everyone there.
Shaping up to be a nice group. I really look forward to meeting you all!
Planning to come. Thanks for setting this up!
I am planning to come. Maybe bring a few friends.
Carla, I am going to try and make it, all the way from Chautauqua County, NY. I notice that the Great Lakes Brewery is right around the corner from our meet up place. They make a very acceptable pilsner. One of my favorites.
Eclair, I do hope you can make it! If you need a place to stay, the Cleveland Hostel is right down the block and has both dorm and private rooms at very reasonable prices. Check it out: http://www.theclevelandhostel.com/book-now
I’ll be at D4!!! Thanks so much!!! Yay #NC!
