Yesterday, about a five minute walk away from this site . . . A person was shot to death in the early morning and witnesses scattered before police could ask questions.
For us this begs the question . . .
WHAT WILL KEEP THE SOUTH LOOP FROM BECOMING JUST ANOTHER SKETCHY DOWNTOWN HANGOUT THAT VISITORS WILL BE AFRAID TO OCCUPY AFTER DARK?!?
Sadly . . .
Already MILLIONS OF BUCKS have been dedicated to the project and nobody has bothered to discuss the project with voters . . . Press events and public cheering meetups are all that's offered to the public.
Think of premier public spaces you have visited around our country. Millennium Park in Chicago, Central Park and the Highline in New York, or in our part of the work Klyde Warren Park in Dallas, the new Gene Leahy Park in Omaha and Myriad Gardens in Oklahoma City. These public spaces have transformed their cities. Creating vibrant, beloved urban spaces where once there was only blight.
The South Loop Project is the latest in this category.
