LINCOLN SQUARE BATTLE: HELL NO, WE WON'T GO

Lincoln Square is boiling over. Tempers are flaring, and that's a good thing. These folks are mad as hell. They are justified. In response to the Government of Occupied Chicago's attempt to steal private property, the following comment is worthy of highlighting. Nuff said... it's just not fair said... WE WON"T GO..This is NOT for affordable housing. And if you check the plan for Lincoln Square...the taking of 36 thriving businesses is just the beginning of a 4 phase plane to turn Lincoln Square into an up scaled condo 6 story monstrosity over 11 blocks. Last night over 300 residents of the ward CAME TO PROTEST THIS CRAZINESS. A representative from the Castle Coalition in Washington addressed the people about the abuses going on in our amazing community along with Sam Adams Alliance. Many many, many residents are against this. It was extremely successful... and then about 70 of these brave folks hiked from the Soccer Store to Alderman Schulters office. It was amazing. Well over a mile walk in the freezing cold. They stood in front of the office chanting for over 45 minutes... END EMINENT DOMAIN... SAVE LINCOLN SQUARE..WE VOTE TOO.... This is just the beginning of our fight to save our community. We would all appreciate it if you came to our rallies and get to understand what they are doing to peoples businesses and homes and lives. There is not such thing as fair compensation. The Dental Corner, Chicago Soccer and many other thriving businesses are NOT in blighted buildings. This is all about -developers-alderman and BIG BUCKS... All for them. The Dental Corner has been serving the community for over 25 years. 85% OF THEIR PATIENTS ARE IN WALKING DISTANCE. They were told. "Oh Well... Thanks for the times you stayed when the neighborhood was not doing so well... but now that you might enjoy the benefits of your belief in the community... YOU CAN GO NOW..." The gentleman who purchased the burnt 6-flat next to Walgreen’s bought the building for 1.1 million dollars. Two months later he was told that he could not get any building permits because the building is going to be owned by Schulter and his cronies. AND HE HAS TO PAY MONTHLY PAYMENTS FOR THIS BUILDING. Is this really America? WHAT IS GOING ON? PLEASE JOIN US AT "SAVE LINCOLN SQUARE.COM" Thank you so much for listening. Happy Holidays Thu Dec 06, 12:04:00 PM CST
