15        "In the interest of further developing Illinois'  economy
16    in  the  area  of  commerce, tourism, convention, and banquet
17    business, nothing in this Section shall prohibit issuance  of
18    a  retail license authorizing the sale of alcoholic beverages
19    to a restaurant, banquet facility, grocery  store,  or  hotel
20    having  not  fewer than 150 guest room accommodations located
21    in   a   municipality   of   more   than   500,000   persons,
22    notwithstanding the proximity of such hotel,  restaurant,  or
23    banquet  facility,  or grocery store to any church or school,
24    if the licensed premises described on the license are located
25    within an enclosed mall or building of a height of at least 6
26    stories, or 60 feet in the case of a building that  has  been
27    registered  as  a  national  landmark,  or in a grocery store
28    having a minimum of 56,010 square feet of floor  space  in  a
29    single  story building in an open mall of at least 3.96 acres
30    that is adjacent to a public school that  opened  as  a  boys
31    technical  high  school  in  1934, and in each of these cases
32    either case if the sale  of  alcoholic  liquors  is  not  the
33    principal business carried on by the licensee license.".
