Pat Nabong / Sun-Times file After Illinois shut down last March to slow the spread of COVID-19, businesses closed, people stayed home, and sales tax revenues that governments rely on plummeted and nowhere more dramatically than in one small but extremely high-profile part of Chicago: The 60611 ZIP code that takes in the Magnificent Mile shopping district of North Michigan Avenue and Navy Pier, one of the state’s biggest tourist magnets. That ZIP code accounted for the state’s most dramatic plunge in sales tax collections, a Chicago Sun-Times analysis of state tax revenues shows a $68 million drop in those taxes that Illinois collected from the city compared to a year earlier. That’s about one-quarter of the city’s $290 million portion of those sales tax losses.
