Big Blight On Addison and Harlem

Have you seen the ginormous concrete condominium monolith on the northwest corner of Addison and Harlem? Apparently Godzilla's been moonlighting as an architect. This thing is clearly out of scale and way too close to the street. Like the HIP, the sidewalks are practically consumed as pedestrians cower in its shadow. Once again, as modern urban planners strive to design more pedestrian friendly areas, we're still in the dark ages. Greenery? Hah, don't be silly. Well how did it appear? Were local residents notified or given an opportunity to weigh in? It's typical of the kind of ex cathedra decision making that gets rammed down our throats. We residents of Belmont Heights and Dunning should have more say in construction decisions that impact our neighborhood and property values.
