and since when does wrigleyville need a hotel and MORE condos? i'm all for replacing the 7-11 and the empty lots with 1-3 story building, but a 9-story MEGA PLEX? this is just awful, and has no place in the community.
also, the starbucks isn't just some crappy building.
it's an original piece of chicago
...this isn't a part of chicago that is in need of new development. and besides, if the developer wants his huge project, why isn't the lot of 7-11 down to the starbucks big enough?
and btw, i too live in the neighborhood. |
If they tear down Mullens I'll be extremely pissed...
And if they can tear down The sports corner, or the Budwieser Building in left field (which will take place after this season for a 4 story condo/rooftop), both of which are/were original Lakeview buildings the Starbucks will likely go the way of the Dodo...
I'd like to see some low rise commercial on the South side of Addison, a couple of restaurants and Cafe's would be nice. Sprinkle in a bar or two and it would be perfect.
