A neighborhood organization working to make a more bike, housing, and transit friendly Lakeview
I’m not entirely sure what the status of the proposed Wellington Greenway is.

In the meantime, I’ve made a corridor crash analysis using city data.

Ironically, the most dangerous area is next to a hospital! #bikechi

The upgrade to Oz Park Playground now features spacious bike racks designed to accommodate cargo bikes with ease. This should be the standard in every park.

Canvassing at Dine Out on Broadway was a blast, even with the storm rolling through. It’s always energizing to hear our neighbors’ ideas for making Lakeview more livable.

From dry canvassing to soaked cycling—community engagement isn’t always glamorous, but it’s always worth it🌟🚲 Thank you to everyone who showed up.

Big thanks to Senator Sara Feigenholtz for championing and passing SB 1507 into law! 🎉
This new law directs the Urban Transportation Center at UIC to study ways to make DuSable Lake Shore Drive safer—using crash data, smart technology, and psychological deterrents—while protecting privacy.
