TL;DR

Billionaire investor Justin Ishbia is nearing a deal to buy Amtrak's 47-acre rail yard in the South Loop, across from The 78, fueling speculation it could become part of a White Sox stadium development or other district; Northwestern Medicine is in early talks to anchor a healthcare facility there, while Amtrak would need to relocate and financing for a project potentially over $1 billion would take years.
