​51st Street Business Association, like all community groups and organizations in Chicago, will be working diligently to keep our community updated on the Coronavirus (COVID-19).  As a delegate agency of the City of Chicago, we will be in constant contact with the City of Chicago's Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection.  Updates will be given immediately as information comes in. Please check our COVID-19 section. It is always best to follow precautions and preventive methods that are outlined by the City of Chicago's Department of Public Health.  

As a reminder, now is the time to double down on what works to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and to keep our businesses open. Please continue to follow city mandated regulations instructions during this time including: wear face coverings, maintain social distancing, avoid gatherings and follow the city's mandated order, and support people returning from COVID-19 quarantine by helping reduce the spread of rumors by letting people know that viruses cannot target people from specific populations, ethnicities, or racial backgrounds. Please follow instructions during this time. Your cooperation is integral to the ongoing public health response to try to slow the spread of this virus. Thank you for your ongoing commitment to follow the COVID-19 regulations and help Chicago continue to move forward in the fight against this deadly virus. ​
