  • 920 W Wilson Chicago, IL - Chicago Ward 46
    Street flooded! We shoveled the snow of the drain yesterday - it still doesn't drain... the same sewer drain that can't handle a lot of rain for years now.
  • Montrose And Clarendon Chicago IL - Chicago Ward 46
    VOTE TODAY! Historically significant Cuneo Hospital complex at Montrose & Clarendon Avenues includes a wonderful pair of mid-century buildings designed by esteemed architect Edo J. Belli that are perfectly suited for creative reuse. Structures at the site have been determined eligible for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places, yet no adaptive reuse studies have been completed. The community that basks in the glow of Clarendon Park's sunshine is worried about affordability, about shadows from the proposed highrises, about traffic from the proposed retail and apartments. Yet no economic, shadow, or traffic studies have been made public for community consideration, and bird safety concerns persist. Please VOTE TODAY to save these community assets and address these concerns. Uptown can help the City of Chicago find a better solution!
  • 920 West Wilson Avenue Chicago, Illinois - Chicago Ward 46
    Standing water on the curbs and half way into the street makes it difficult to get to cars and especially difficult for those in wheelchairs because the ramps are flooded.
  • 804 - 836 W. Lakeside Chicago, IL - Chicago Ward 46
    Alley is not graded correctly & sinkholes are forming, leading to creative solutions on the part of local residents to manage stormwater.
  • 1200-1226 West Gunnison Street Chicago, IL 60640, USA - Chicago Ward 48
  • 1229 W. Foster Avenue Chicago, IL - Chicago Ward 46
    Manhole (square) cover on north side of street (westbound lane), directly in front of building at 1227-1229 W. Foster Ave., makes a loud clanging sound when cars drive over it.
  • 4730 North Clarendon Avenue Chicago, Illinois - Chicago Ward 46
    Running stop signs. Since living here just over a year, I have never seen so many people running these stop signs. People have almost been hit several times. Myself included. I have talked to a few police officers which one even saw and stopped the vehicle disobeying the signs. 311 has not helped either. They have told me to call the police or go to the caps meetings. I am afraid that someone is really going to get hurt. This intersection is extremely busy with Walgreens, 2 hospitals and a busy bus stop near by.
  • 4700 N Beacon Ave Chicago, Illinois - Chicago Ward 46
    Behind the building, there is a frequently leaking pipe that spills into the alley. It causes major problems with ice buildup. There are also pipes that leak right onto the Leland sidewalk, which also ices up. This causes problems with people and cars. There are slips and falls, and people with disabilities have a lot of trouble.
  • Clarendon & Lawrence Chicago, Illinois - Chicago Ward 46

    Can we get Big Belly or twin garbage/recycling like at Millenium Park here? No recycling option, chronic overflow.

    Threw the garbage from the top into own trash again, but can insert needs to be lifted & area below it cleaned out.

    4602 N Malden St Chicago, IL 60640, USA - Chicago Ward 46
    Please install a striped crosswalk at the intersections of Wilson/Malden and Wilson/Dover, including signs in the middle of the street that instruct drivers to yield to waiting pedestrians. This area is near an elementary school and children often try to cross this street, which has no very clearly marked crosswalks nor signs instructing drivers of State law.

    4646 N Magnolia Ave chicago, il - Chicago Ward 46

    Hello all,

    Today, 1/20/14, the residents of 4644 N Magnolia Ave had a tree removal company come onto their property beginning at approximately 8am. Surely this is not an issue per city codes regarding noise, but I am inclined to believe that common courtesy could have gone a long way in this situation. I was abruptly awoken at 8am this morning by these workers and it is now nearly 3pm and the tree removal crew is still sawing away. Given that I am a full time student and I work two part time jobs, one of which is primarily from home, this has been an incredible nuisance for me. My studio sits not 20 yards from these folks' yard. Had the residents bothered to inform neighbors that a lengthy day of tree removal was forthcoming, I would have no issue -- I would have stayed with a friend elsewhere.

    So, please, can we all agree to be a bit more neighborly, considering that this is a densely populated area with numerous apartments?
