Rogers Park Alderman Joe Moore has thrown his weight behind the Pritzker parking garage at Sheridan & Sherwyn, despite staunch opposition from many in the neighborhood. John Greenfield pens an insightful piece on Moore's decision and mindset for Chi.Streetsblog. Known as a champion of sustainable transport, Moore may have embraced this 250-car garage slated for the site of the former Shambhala Meditation Center in part because of allegiance to car-owning constituents, but also as an act of appeasement to James Pritzker— the man who has used a touch of his billions to restore neighborhood landmarks. We would't want all that to suddenly end. [Chi.Streetsblog, previously]
