One of Chicago's Most Anticipated Restaurants Swaps Names
One of Chicago's most anticipated restaurant openings of the year is getting a name change. The restaurant formerly known as Brick and Mortar is now known as Ox Bar & Hearth.
For longtime Chicagoans, the name will make sense. The space — across the street from the North & Clybourn CTA Red Line Stop — most recently housed Burger Bar Chicago. However, from 1921 to 2014, the Golden Ox called 1578 N. Clybourn home. The Golden Ox was one of Chicago's most beloved German restaurants.
A rep for Ox Bar & Hearth tells Eater ownership wants to create a communal environment, remembering the past while building toward a new vision. A rep adds that the name is inspired by London's traditions, where the names of pubs and restaurants often include animals and paired with 'symbols of comfort, craft, or place.'
John Asbaty and Alain Uy, both alums of suburban Evanston's Trio, plan to open the restaurant later this summer. Look for live fire cooking with Midwestern roots. The duo wants to focus on simple cooking, but says that simple doesn't have to mean boring.
While a rep didn't have an update on an opening date, the restaurant is hiring. Look for details soon.

German firms to submit competing EU bids for AI gigafactory, newspaper reports
BERLIN (Reuters) -Deutsche Telekom, Ionos and the Schwarz Group's IT subsidiary will submit competing applications to the EU for an AI gigafactory after the German firms could not agree on a common concept, the Tagesspiegel newspaper reported Thursday. Software giant SAP will not participate, according to the newspaper.

Where home values increased and decreased most
Where home values increased and decreased most Sharp changes in home values can have many ripple effects throughout the local economy. In the short term, both potential homesellers and homebuyers may be impacted by changes in local competitive forces and affordability. Over time, these changes can affect the city's tax base, current homeowners' refinancing options, demand in the local job markets, and other dynamics may be impacted by such changes, eventually making its way to many intertwined bottom lines from city to individual resident. With this in mind, SmartAsset ranked 100 of the largest cities based on the biggest one-year changes in the typical home value between 2024 and 2025. Key findings Home values increased by over 13.5% in Irvine, California. At the end of March 2024, the typical home in Irvine was estimated to be worth $1.42 million. This shot up to $1.61 million by the end of March 2025. The five-year increase in home values in Irvine was also the highest studywide at 82.1%Knoxville, Tennessee, sees 80% growth in home value over five years. Second only to Irvine on the five-year timeframe, Knoxville homes were valued just over $198,000 in early 2020-and just over $356,000 by 2025. Growth over the one-year timeframe showed a cooling trend with a modest 2.11%.Home prices cool down this year in these otherwise hot Florida cities. Naples, Florida, saw the biggest decrease in home values at -5.9% to around $581,000. Saint Petersburg, Florida, ranked second in this metric at -4.92%, bringing home values down to just above $364,000. This comes after a recent growth spurt in home values for both cities, bringing the five-year change to 63.4% and 52.3%, Midwestern cities join the ranks of California cities for high growth in home values. Milwaukee (8.2%) ranks second this year for highest growth in home values at 8.2%, with a modest home value of nearly $209,000 compared to its first- and third-place Californian counterparts, where home values teeter closer to $1.5 million. Also making the top 10 cities for home value growth this year are Cleveland (6.5%); Toledo, Ohio (5.8%); and Madison, Wisconsin (5.2%).Demand is strong in Kentucky cities. Louisville and Lexington ranked eighth and ninth for home value growth. In Louisville, a 5.4% increase puts home values now around $249,000, compared to a 5.3% increase for an estimated value of nearly $316,000 in Lexington.
