I'm still sad about WTT. But hopefully this is just a "out with the old, in with the new" type change. I think Noble Square strip of Chicago still needs to figure out their identity. Agree about Mexique.. the place is way too good to be empty

Ukrainian Village is bursting with development and is slowly getting there, but still has its challenges. Two months ago the city had to clean up Latin Kings graffiti from my property. Just last week it looked as if some lowlife was trying to break into my tenants' apartment. Reality is, petty theft and gang activity remain an issue in the city. I'm not sure it will ever be as safe as the burbs
