Everybody by now has probably heard of the proposal to build a large
condo development behind us on 1245 W. Jackson. Is anybody going to the
developer's invitation for a "preview" tonight at LePeep (1000 W.
Washington)? If so, could you report back to the list? It sounds like
that entire back portion of parking lots might be a mini-high rise.

There's a proposal being fought be the West Loop Association against
a 30 story highrise on two vacant lots on Jackson just west of Racine.
Is this the same project??

Any info from the meeting would be useful.
