The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Happy Pride, #Chicago 🌈✨
It's always an incredible feeling taking in the energy from the crowds along the parade route.

Finally navigated the #606trail to the western trailhead and back. Impatiently waiting for construction on the eastern extension to finally commence (and looking at Sterling Bay to build their portion across the #Chicago River through their failed Lincoln Yards megadevelopment).

I never would have put "VA Republicans running a black woman and a gay man on the ballot for governor / lieutenant governor" on my bingo card this year, but nonetheless a historic choice in an election that will also give way to the first female governor in the Commonwealth.

With a new floor being poured every three days and glass facade installation featuring #Chicago bay windows coming up from behind, the North tower of 400 N Lake Shore Drive is quickly making its mark as a signature tower for #Streeterville.

The monument is a 42 foot Doric Greek column that is the same exact size and proportion as the Parthenon colonnade atop the Acropolis in Athens 🏛️

Taller, denser, transit oriented development along the nodes of the city's busiest heavy rail line is a no-brainer. It's great to see the proposal to upzone development in Uptown and Edgewater move forward, hopefully giving way to more affordable housing options for Chicagoans in the years to come.

Three Far North Side alderpeople have endorsed plans to rezone a stretch of Broadway to attract more housing and businesses. The controversial plan has been hotly debated among neighbors.

Looking forward to seeing parcel O in Lakeshore East finally go vertical, with the Hoxton Hotel chain set to open its second #Chicago location. The development will also fill in a gap in the city's pedway grid, connecting BCBS Tower to the rest of the system.
