As I was doing research on the above story, I found a story about a woman that fell or was pushed out a window there in Sept. 2007. I did not hear about this incident at the time it occured.
WBBM 780 - Story
I wonder how many people die there each year?
Truly disturbing. |
Shiller is protecting this place for some weird reason. There was a community meeting last year regarding some problems at the Hotel, and Shiller got her knickers in a bunch INSISTING that it wasn't a referendum on closing the place. If this is the Shiller model for affordable housing, we should all be very affraid. What a joke! |

I just may show up at that meeting in Lake View and give her some heat on this issue.
Where was this community meeting last year at? |

Can't remember. It might have been at Faith Tabernacle Church. They open their doors for a lot of community meetings, including CAPS. |

I've actually been inside that building once chasing after a guy who stole my 40 ounces from the liquor store across the street. I stormed in there and everyone, including the employees, either is or has been a junkie, you can just tell from the look of the people. It was one of the most disgusting places I've ever seen, it was like the twilight zone. I just had to let the liquor go and leave, who knows what could have happened if I actually went upstairs.
