The New Eastside News, a free monthly Chicago neighborhood paper, is launching a Streeterville paper this month.
Since 2012, the New Eastside News has been providing hyperlocal news to New Eastside and the Lakeshore East neighborhood. Publisher Elaine Hyde, a former resident of New Eastside, said she plans to continue that tradition with a Streeterville print newspaper and website.
“We provide news so relevant and useful to the local reader they just have to read our paper to know what’s going on around them,” Hyde said. “It’s not the sensationalist click bait we see so often now.”
The Streeterville News will be an upbeat source of information for newcomers, introducing them to area bars, restaurants and entertainment. Local news coverage will also provide value to longtime residents.
The newspaper will include popular features such as Doorperson of the Month, CAPS reporting, business profiles, reader contests and neighborhood news. The free publication will be distributed in residential mailrooms, grocery stores, retail establishments and hotels.
“It’s time Streeterville got a dedicated local news source.”
