Raising Cane's opens first location in downtown Chicago

The new restaurant is located on Michigan Avenue in the former Montgomery Ward Building

The fast-food restaurant chain Raising Cane's opened its first location in downtown Chicago last week.

The restaurant, which is located on Michigan Avenue in the former Montgomery Ward Building, opened its doors to customers on Jan. 10.

The new location in the Windy City displays graphics that pay homage to the building's history, a Raising Cane's press release read, according to FOX 32

The popular chicken chain will be downtown Chicago's first Raising Cane's, and the second flagship location in the country. The first Raising Cane's flagship restaurant opened last year on the Las Vegas strip, and two more flagship locations are planned for later this year, in Miami's South Beach and New York City's Times Square.
