McDonalds is moving back to Chicago and into the old home of The Oprah Winfrey Show.
The worlds biggest hamburger chain said Monday that it signed a lease to move its corporate headquarters in 2018 from the leafy suburbs of Oak Brook, Illinois, to downtown Chicago. McDonalds was previously based in the city from 1955 to 1971.
