Once a vibrant Hyde Park lakefront hotel, the entire footprint of the prime property, located at 4900 S. DuSable Lake Shore Drive, will become a permanent homeless shelter in June. It will be big enough to house over 750 people. Almost two years ago, the former Chicago Lakeshore Hotel was opened as a temporary migrant shelter.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
This just what Jesus would have wanted.
