^ Yes that’s it.
Fills in that corner nicely, and so far has a nice, thick masonry look. I know that it’s not cutting edge copulating insects stuff, but good filler |

It's really great to see the Laramie State Bank building getting a rehab. That's a real art deco gem on the westside.

The city is doing a lot of initiatives for Invest South/West. One that caught my eye is the “1,000 homes project" for North Lawndale. Exactly as it sounds, the city is partnering with Lawndale Christian Development Council and United Power to build 1,000 units throughout the neighborhood. Phase I will cover 125 infill lots surrounding Ogden Ave. The project is still in the planning stage, but has been discussed in a couple of public documents and press releases

^ Looks like they want to get rid (or begin getting rid) parts of the frontage roads along each side of Ogden. I feel that would be a wasted opportunity. It would be great to find an alternate use for it, such as BRT or even light rail. (Although spending money on rail here might be unjustified due to its proximity to the Pink line). A dedicated ROW like this is something the city would be wise to preserve for future transportation expansion, IMHO.

Agreed, at a minimum they could easily make it protected bike lanes
