November 6, 2008 – Marina City residents will be treated to free food and drinks at Dick’s Last Resort next Monday. For months, company officials had been talking about doing some sort of special event for residents, but details were not known until Wednesday.

On November 10, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., the restaurant/bar that opened at Marina City on October 30 will offer free food and drinks to anyone with identification showing residency at Marina City.

Dick’s Last Resort

After 20 years in the River East neighborhood, Dick’s controversial move to Marina City sparked debate among residents and their condo board that led to a renewed effort to seek official landmark status. It also changed the south wall of the commercial platform, got 42nd Ward Alderman Brendan Reilly involved, and led to increased friction between commercial and residential property managers at the mixed-use complex.
