Architect, Chicagoan, but my dog Murphy is the real star of this show

This is how you know the architect he picked has no skill. I’ve seen designers put descriptions into AI for presentations and then the client expects that exact design. This is not possible. Also not how any design process works. Just a bunch of grifters
Saturday morning in Lakeview. ICE free for now
ICE was in my neighborhood today and Chicagoans stood up. But at the same time I talked to multiple people who said their grad schools went on lockdown. They are traumatizing everyone!!
Because they’re not actual practicing Catholics. If they were then they would be opposed to the death penalty
Desecration of the peoples house and our democracy

La cosa nostra. It’s not a house, it’s the mafia and you would think the nytimes would know that. Amateurs

Fun fact: in the late 1800s and early 1900s it was very common to mix asbestos into concrete because it helped prevent the concrete from cracking and is extremely fire resistant. Also it is a million billion tiny knives that hate the cells in your lungs with a passion.
When Chase demolished 270 Park Avenue, it took them two years and there was an absolute fuckton of asbestos abatement involved, and that building was built in 1960. A building built in 1902 would be approximately 40% asbestos by volume.
This is generally not the way you tear down buildings in the middle of a city that was built in 1902 and probably has quite a bit of asbestos in it
Because the dementia is advancing and he won’t be confused whether he is at the WH or Mar-a-lago. It’s all the same in his addled little brain
The great British bake off should be required therapy for everyone. It helps me find the good in the world that is still there
Has anyone even confirmed that all the historical artifacts were removed and stored properly? Or did he put them in the bathroom in mar-a-lago?
Well the additional lead and asbestos these fascists inhale is only going to make them dumber. Wear a mask if you live in DC!
My library had whistles and guidelines. Another reason to love libraries. Stay strong Chicago and protect each other
I’m 5’2” and run 9 minute miles. Bunch of losers
💯 I guess they get what they get
I went to grad school in Syracuse and that’s insane that you could spend that eating in that city. We used to go to a hotel HH just for the free pizza
And since I have actually been to the EUR, Mussolini’s new neighborhood, his personal gym, Palazzo Della Civita Italiana, at least that fascist had beautiful buildings built. This fascist and his trash bag aesthetics infuriate me as much as his shitty politics
Literally drew foundations 1/2” from the historic buildings, then walked sites weekly to make sure items were preserved properly for reinstallation. I loved doing that because I valued the buildings and loved the adaptive reuse of historic buildings…
I’m even more enraged today about this destruction. I designed additions to historic buildings in DC and spent time at the building museum getting design reviews prepped, at the city talking with reviewers to ensure we weren’t too close to the metro when we dug down…
Dream big! I hope they learn as someone who always voted. But I was lucky because my mother would remind me to get my absentee ballot when I was in college
Aging hippies would be all 80 year olds. Why does these people still argue like it’s the 80s?
