Sir Richard Branson is about to bring Virgin Air service to Chicago — could a hotel be on the way, too? As recently as last month, Virgin was in talks to open a hotel in the 17-story Motor Club building at 68 E. Wacker in the Loop, according to Crain's. Virgin didn't provide a comment for the story, but 42nd Ward Ald. Brendan Reilly says he plans to meet with Virgin execs in the near future. [Crain's]
