So this re-zoning doesn't have anything to do with the developer who wants to build a high rise next door? The letter mentioned the address of 1238-1248 W. Jackson...changing the zone from M1-3 to B2-3. I had heard Redford was in town looking at the Fannie May building but isn't that in the 1000-1100 block of Jackson?
I will not know until tomorrow if I can go to the meeting so whomever can make it to the meeting, let's try keep everyone informed via email.

I read that in Crains on Sunday, as well. I thought it was pretty cool...Although, as an architect, I hope they don't just tear the building down and put up something ugly (there's a lot of that going on in the West Loop). The old building has some nice detailing, and it fits the neighborhood. I would think they could work with the structure as it is.
Plus, it would be nice to have Mr. Redford show his face around the City once in awhile.
