Running specialty store Universal Sole, with a location in Lakeview, appears to be opening a second location in the Lakeshore East neighborhood.

It is an interesting choice of location as Lakeshore East has no retail shops other than a Mariano's. Wonder if the location was picked based on it's close proximity to Grant Park, where most races begin, and it's proximity to the lakeshore running path.

No date for an opening but the space is still pretty bare. –Victoria A. Olivares
