This will just give "players" another place to lean. Just wait until the Roosevelt Collection opens; full of Sec 8 renters.residentnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-86245587168886085962009-08-11T17:24:24.493-05:002009-08-11T17:24:24.493-05:00Glad to see something opening.

I feel that late-night "Loitering" on Michigan between Roosevelt and 14th has become a sport over the past few months.SoLonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-51349848040624137282009-08-11T14:40:45.381-05:002009-08-11T14:40:45.381-05:00Nope Anon, Rob is correct the space for Lou's ...Nope Anon, Rob is correct the space for Lou's new place was Haithcock's allegedly rent free office.South Loopernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-18064998114412211092009-08-11T03:02:00.685-05:002009-08-11T03:02:00.685-05:00Rob, you may be thinking of the building next door...Rob, you may be thinking of the building next door at something like 1226 S. Michigan that was Haithcock's office, which I was told in some circles was provided essentially free to her by a certain developer who donated boat loads to here financially.<br /><br />Back to the concept, Park South 1212 was originally to be a pizza place partnered with Palarmo's (same group that has Red Ivy on Clyborn?). Plan is to make money on dine in, pizza, take-out, party space, and roof top lounge overlooking Grant Park. <br /><br />Interesting how quick the zoning got approved with Allison Davis and the Mayors nephew Vernako (sp?) owning the place as part of city pension fund investment. Allison also is developer in Columbian and Roosevelt Hotel (if you can call it that)<br /><br />Lou took his time to kiss the various local and king rings...:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-32517647404726452582009-08-10T16:37:21.700-05:002009-08-10T16:37:21.700-05:00Not sure about Daley, but the space was definitely...Not sure about Daley, but the space was definitely Haithcock-affiliated.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10698571869929131294noreply@blogger.com
