CHICAGO - A new AAA facility has opened its doors in Chicago’s Pullman neighborhood, creating 60 full-time jobs for local residents.

Located on East 111th Street, the center will serve as a home base for the company's expanded roadside assistance fleet for the Chicago area.

At a press conference Monday, Alderman Anthony Beale spoke about the positive impact the new facility will have on the local community.

"We have a fast-growing community as far as creating jobs and opportunity, and having a company like AAA come in really just adds to our family," Beale said. "We're trying to make sure everyone is part of this community here."
