If you are not at ground level, yeah, it kind of is that close. It's 15 miles from to Evanston from downtown.

"Northwestern answered the bell in the facility arms race…225 million times.
The university announced that it will break ground on a new Lakefront Athletics and Recreation Complex on Friday, Nov. 13. The facility will cost the university a reported $225 million, according to the Chicago Tribune’s Teddy Greenstein. The “We Will. The Campaign for Northwestern,” provided the funding.
A $23 million gift from University trustees Kimberly K. Querrey and Louis A. Simpson as part of “We Will. The Campaign for Northwestern,” pushed the project into action.
Wildcat football coach Pat Fitzgerald was pleased about the announcement, to say the least."

I wonder how much OK4P donated to make this happen.
