Ungar's Village Center Back in Play: 53rd St. TIF Meeting Monday, July 14

A lot of rumors have floated around about the fate of the forlorn Village Center at 51st and Lake Park; some of you may remember Peter Rossi's ruminations on the topic from last February.

Well, now Ungar is back with new and improved plans, to be unveiled at the 53rd Street TIF meeting, together with all sorts of other juicy development-related stuff. Stop by and get the download.

The next meeting of the 53rd Street TIF Council is scheduled for:

Monday, July 14, 2008
7PM
Hyde Park Neighborhood Club
5408 S. Kenwood Avenue

The agenda will include the following items:
  • 53rd & Harper Update -- University of Chicago
  • Harper Court RFP Update
  • Report from the University of Chicago Student Retail Task Force
  • Proposal for Redevelopment of Village Center -- Elli Ungar, Antheus Capital
  • Other stuff
Check it out.

Off topic note: The New Yorker has an article on Obama's Hyde Park days. You guys can probably dissect it better than anyone http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/07/21/080721fa_fact_lizza

Btw, you need to make your emails more readily available.
