Hyde Park Progress is a blog devoted to promoting reasonable economic improvement in Chicago's Hyde Park neighborhood. It is a forum for members of the community who want to end the artificial isolation of Hyde Park from the larger economy of the City. It calls for the improvement of neighborhood retail and commercial amenities, safety, and liveliness.

The Onion or The Herald?
Pardon the profanity, but this farce hits a little too close to home.
CHICAGO, IL—Many of those who live in the hopeless pit of a neighborhood say they are hesitant to allow the prick developer to dump a concrete-and-glass yuppie turd on it.
I have long enjoyed the Herald for its unintentional Onion-esque qualities. However, to suggest that our Hide Park is a "shitty neighborhood" is a GROSS exaggeration (pun intended.)
