Six moving trucks pulled up to 1230 N. Burling St. yesterday morning, attempting to remove the remaining residents from the last standing Cabrini-Green high-rise. Residents have been offered a choice between moving into the low-rises a few blocks south or to be shipped off to Lawndale. The CHA issued 180-day eviction notices over the summer, but those don't expire until next month. They claim that too few families live in the building, making it unsafe. Now, the housing authority will go to federal court to try to speed the process. [Chicago Breaking News]
