LOSS: Questionable Circumstances Surrounding Emergency Demolition of Contributing Building in Chicago Landmark District

-

“Those of you who live in the Mid-North Landmark District know about the demolition of 2107 N. Cleveland that occurred two weeks ago. In that case, we believe an unscrupulous owner conducted un-permitted excavation on the site to undermine the building’s foundation. Again, we are working with the Law Department to file suit against these owners. In addition, I am filing a new ordinance in City Council next week to strengthen the law against those who seek to get around landmark rules by destroying their property.” (From the Newsletter of 43rd Ward Alderman Michele Smith)
