It's at 1620 Waukegan road in Glenview Illinois
Real near Lake street, at an old Buick dealership, I guess. There is some space around there for some parking if they move it nearby, I think-or got rid of all the 2005's by now!!

Was just looking for a show to go to this weekend sometime, found this.
