Don't worry Mel, if SHCA/UCHS won't stand in solidarity with you; the FOC-UPs are always ready to be the voice of the community! The FOC-UPs held unannounced open public forums about these towers weeks ago, in the shadows of a new moon, and the community's unanimous voice will be heard!
After careful deliberative democracy and civic engagement, the community agrees with Penn real estate, the Trustees and their mayor; that a 40 story tower should be built at 43rd and Baltimore and a 50 story tower on 46th, between Springfield and Chester.
For the community,
Glenn
Chairman of the Zoning and Dog Biscuit committees, the FOC-UPs

Subject: [UC-Announce] Demolition alert: 4224 Baltimore Ave.
I am copying below a letter, which is now being circulated, sent by L&I to neighboring properties of 4224 Baltimore Ave. I'm not technologically able to put the letter online where you all can look at the actual letter, but if someone would like to do that, I can scan & send it to you.
The Campenella name may ring a bell: he was the developer planning the proposed homeless shelter at 45th & Chestnut several years ago.
