After a series of new owners, it was expanded and rebranded around 1914 as the Green Mill Gardens, taking inspiration from Paris’s Moulin Rouge (French for \"Red Mill\")—substituting \"green\" to avoid being associated with Chicago’s “red light” district fifteen miles to the south near today’s South Loop neighborhood. During its early years, Green Mill Gardens included extensive outdoor seating, lavish dining, and a real green mill atop its roof. \u003C/p>\u003Cp>The Green Mill is widely documented to have continued serving alcohol during Prohibition with gangster Jack “Machine Gun” McGurn having a financial interest in the club during the 1920s. A trapdoor behind the bar, built to access underground storage tunnels, reportedly doubled as an escape hatch used by patrons during police raids.  \u003C/p>\u003Ch4>Present Day\u003C/h4>\u003Cp>After parts of the larger venue were sold off, today the Green Mill is part of a larger mixed-use complex on Broadway. Though modest in scale, the bar’s interior retains many period details, including an Art Deco-style back bar, ornate plaster details, and vintage murals that evoke its 1920s character. The iconic green neon “Green Mill Cocktail Lounge” sign was added around the mid-20th century and remains one of the most recognizable neon signs in the city.  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>The original entrance to Green Mill Gardens now serves as the doorway to a restaurant just north of the Green Mill. Above that establishment’s doorway, you can still spot a windmill carved into the stone—a reminder of the site’s past. While often blocked by modern signage, the venue’s original name remains etched in place at the top of the doorway. \u003C/p>\u003Cp>The Green Mill continues to be one of the city’s most popular venues hosting numerous renowned performers, regular jazz sets, and the long-running Uptown Poetry Jam, which began in the 1980s.\u003C/p>","no-top",null,{"large":613},{"display":614,"flexDirection":615,"position":616,"flexShrink":617,"boxSizing":618},"flex","column","relative","0","border-box",{"@type":596,"@version":457,"id":620,"meta":621,"component":623,"responsiveStyles":645},"builder-2290384e29334464acddd5b2b8a36e8e",{"previousId":622},"builder-cb3c73f76c9d422e9eacc8110cab6883",{"name":624,"options":625,"isRSC":611},"Fact Carousel",{"factList":626},[627,633,636,639,642],{"body":628,"title":629,"icon":630},"\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-size: 16px;\">As another nod to Paris, the Green Mill was briefly renamed the Montmartre Café before being ordered to close in 1926 for violating Prohibition.
