Lightfoot Calls Off Demolition At Little Village Hilco Site After Protesters Show Up At Her House – Block Club Chicago

The April 11 implosion caused citywide outrage, especially as Chicago’s Latino community battles high rates of coronavirus. As of Friday morning, the 60623 ZIP code, which includes Little Village, has had 2,325 confirmed cases of COVID-19. At the time, Lightfoot slammed the site’s owner, Hilco Redevelopment Partners, and vowed to stop work at the site indefinitely.

I saw the drone video of that previous implosion and that was a total F up. No one should have breathed in that caustic dust. They had like one hose to spray the dust. Complete morons.
