Perhaps one of the busiest stores on Michigan Avenue has closed for six months starting this week. Niketown, which closed on Monday will undergo a major renovation and re-open in September. Since opening in the early 90's, Nike's has opened many more outstanding retail experiences across the globe and when Chicago's three story flagship re-opens it will be at the top of its game.
