It's gone? Hubby used to run security at Marina City many years ago.

You mean the place actually called "Ten Pin" (or "10pin", I guess...)?

That's still open. It's in the Marina City area. Was it once inside of Marina City?

The Yelp page on it: 10pin Bowling Lounge - Near North Side - Chicago, IL 60610

10 Pin is in a building adjacent to the towers. It is part of the Marina City complex. It has changed ownership and name-it used to be the Marina City Lanes. The prices,decor,patrons,etc have changed, but as far as I know it has always been where it is located now. Maybe the OP is talking about the way it used to be???

Yes, there was an alley inside Marina City in the 80's. I don't remember the name but it used to be quite popular. I didn't realize there was one at IBM Plaza.

Hubby said the name was Stewart Bowl. I hope I remembered right since he told me 15 mins ago.

It's still there. 10pin was alive and well when I walked by it on Friday. It's the same old bowling alley that's always been there, just with a facelift and higher prices.
