Hi, This is a little outside of the heart of Logan Square...but I notice two new homes popped up on one lot at the corner of Fairfield and Cortland. I've don't...
I believe you have to have a special permit to put in a driveway like that, and I wonder if one was obtained in this case, and whether there should have been...
Neighbors and Friends, Just wanted to let you know that we can still use a few more volunteers at this year's BLT Palmer Square rest stop. Details of the event...
The message below is from the LS List. Anybody know anything about the fate of the Wrightwood bump-outs? wrightwood bump-outs Posted by: "Matt Hellige"...
I haven't seen it personally, but I just spoke with Marielee at the Ward office. She did not know what was going on, but said she would check with Martha or...
I just saw Tom Cunningham's note about the possibility they're pulling back the bump-outs to accommodate cyclists. I certainly hope that he's right. While I've...
Hi everyone, I just wanted to pass along some definitive info about the bump-outs. Martha Ramos from the 35th ward office called and left me a voicemail. The...
If the construction/design is in violation of ADA guidelines, then it will need to be redone, it just acceptable. Mark, once again you are right on the money...
I have to agree with Mark. I walked the intersection tonight, and it is even worse than the ridiculous design at our corner of Albany and Fullerton. It would...

... So, improvements for a very small but vocal minority, to the detriment of the rest of us. ... Um, no. I like the paint and faux-brick pattern, but it...
Disabled folks are more than just vocal, they are in need of these changes. They can't just hop curbs like you or I can with our baby strollers. It's an...
I'm on board with Lisa Phillips on this. I think this type of alteration is dangerous for walkers and handicapped alike. Laurie ... So, improvements for a...

Folks, I took a careful look today at the Fullerton/Sacramento intersection in question, and compared it with the other pseudo brick impression crosswalks...
Thanks, Rey, but we will be out of town. What would be the goal of the walk? I think our next step should be to contact the City's Pedestrian coordinator (yes,...
Lisa, I just wanted to understand better the design problems by being there with folks in our group, such as yourself, Josh, and Peter, that know this better....
As others express better than my initial description- the crosswalks are NOT colinear with sidewalk paths that lead up to them. Instead crosswalks are shifted...
Hi, Neighbors! For any of you who may have known Jim Gustafson of Logan Square Preservation, I wanted to include you in this email. Sincerely, Ward Miller All,...
