The Lerner Swamp

burned out in Rogers Park

"Whenever you complain, others poo-poo you & say how much worse it once was – like I should be grateful for crumbs of improvement! Or they call you a yuppie for wanting basic middle-class amenities. And then there’s the famous diversity – as if there’s much inter-mingling. & as if this is some hard-won victory than simply a demographic condition".

Rogers Park history and character destroyed

Save Street End Beaches has left a new comment on your post "It's official: Two more buildings come down!":

Do you have any photos of the lovely blue diamonds that bordered the top? I wish I had taken photos of the two buildings before the demolition started. :(

Hi Bill,

I wanted to let you know that you should take some photos of the buildings at 6572-90 N. Sheridan Road (southwest corner of Sheridan and Albion) while you still have the chance. Loyola University is planning to demolish them soon.

I hate Loyola.
