Housing alert!
There’s a proposal to turn a car shop on Chicago Avenue into 50 new apartments 🏗️🏘️ in the 36th Ward!
It will have reduced parking and will be on one of the fastest bus lines in the city, the 66. Seems like a slam dunk to us 🏀

Grand Avenue NIMBYs back at it again, with the usual lies about the upcoming protected bike lanes:
- It'll slow down CTA (it won't)
- It'll eliminate parking (not true)
- It'll slow down EMS (EMS is 100% onboard)
And now, they're having secret meetings about it...

Make no mistake: the “Save Grand Ave Parking” petition is not about “saving” anyone. It’s about putting cars over people.
And while their proposal is deeply unserious, it also poses a real threat to the project.
It only takes a few dozen angry voices to stall a project.

Who studied parking utilization, you might ask? Why, CDOT themselves, of course! It was part of the initial study in 2023.
This is the reason that parking east of Ashland is remaining in place.

Two #GrandAve business owners have started a campaign to “save Grand Ave’s parking” - even though parking utilization is below 50%, and parking is only planned to be removed on one side of the street.
It seems they’re trying to get signatures for a petition against upcoming safety improvements.

🏠Housing alert!
A developer is proposing to turn the empty lot at 2240 N Milwaukee Ave into a 50-unit apartment building. It will be within a quarter mile of protected bike lanes, public transit, restaurants, and shopping - exactly the type of housing we need more of on the northwest side.
