Come visit us at 410 S. Michigan Avenue located on the second floor in the historic Fine Arts Building.​ At Exile in Bookville (a nod to Liz Phair’s 1993 debut album Exile in Guyville) we believe that books and music are synonymous and carry that over into our store. We have a growing selection of vinyl for sale and a personal collection for your listening pleasure. Come be our guest DJ! Check out our recommended reads, some of which come from talented booksellers, authors, and other book and music folk from across the multiverse. Read! Listen! And thank you for supporting Exile in Bookville!
—Javier Ramirez and Kristin Enola Gilbert

About the Chicago Athletic Association

Chicago Athletic Association - 12 S Michigan Ave, Chicago, IL 60603

​It doesn’t get more Chicago than this 1893 icon of old-world design and good cheer. 

With echoes of banging billiard balls, tossed poker chips and clinking glasses resonating through the halls, our 1893 Venetian Gothic landmark is a living, breathing ode to Chicago’s rich story—where the spirit of play reigned supreme.

Reserved for the elite and privileged for 122 years—until we opened the doors and welcomed everyone—today Chicago Athletic Association is both a novel downtown destination on the doorstep of Millennium Park and a historic monument to the big-shouldered spirit that defines our beloved city. Ours is never, ever the same place twice.
