Well, since "downtown" is generally considered the place where the 0 streets
cross (State and Madison form the basis of the Chicago street numbering 
systems; ie: 1N, 1S, 1E, and 1W) and the address is 5935 north and 2600 west,
I would say you would be roughly 60 blocks north and 26 blocks west of 
"downtown".  BTW, Michigan ends at about 1000 north, so, depending on where
on Michigan you want to go, you may only need to travel 50 blocks south.
Michigan is 100 E, so add another easterly city block of travel if you are
specifically going to Michigan Ave.

Oh, and Lincoln Ave goes within 4 blocks of that address, so some of the 
distance would be decreased since you would be traveling at somewhat of an
angle.
