What is the River North Association?
River North Association (RNA) is a member-driven organization of businesses in the area bounded by the Chicago River on the South and West, Division on the North and Wabash on the East. It is a diverse and vibrant cross-section of the business community drawn to the River North neighborhood because they feel at home in an environment that supports entrepreneurial spirit and need to be inspired in all areas of business and life. Our members work inspired, live inspired, shop inspired, design inspired, collect inspired, dine inspired, play inspired and stay inspired—and look to RNA to support and enhance those objectives.
RNA is an important force in the community, representing businesses and providing member services to help them succeed. As an association of businesses, retailers, art galleries, hotels, restaurants, entertainment enterprises, residents and many more, RNA works to promote the community, encourage while enhancing River North development, interact in a leadership role with civic officials and community leader; meet the needs of its members; and create and preserve a community environment that will provide quality of life for all who live, work, entertain and visit here.
