Secret Service building secret Democratic convention communications center in southern suburb – Chicago Sun-Times

Why so far from the main convention locations of the Loop, where the delegates are booked in eight hotels; the McCormick Place complex, the site of daytime meetings and press briefings; and the United Center, where President Joe Biden will be nominated for a second term? Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said, “You want to be far enough away from the event so that if something were to occur it doesn’t affect your ability to command and control your response.”
