The next CEC meeting will be held on Thursday, May 2nd from 6:30-7:30 at the Near East Pride Center.

The community, specifically those in the Bronzeville neighborhood, will have the opportunity to give their input regarding the future of the Sawyer Towers aka Latitude 525. It has still been undecided whether the towers will be demolished for a new construction or rehabilitated.

Neighbors have individually expressed a lot of interest in this project, so please use this opportunity to show up and engage by joining in person or during the live stream.
