The Mag Mile currently has a retail vacancy of 24.7%, but that's in line with other high-traffic shopping corridors, including 5th Avenue in New York City and Union Square in San Francisco.
When Ms. Lightfoot stood by and allowed lawlessness in the summer of ’20 she apparently had no idea she had released the Kraken. Between her and Ms. Foxx criminality has been taken to a whole new level. The Mag Mile and State Street that Great Street are now relics of the past thanks to mismanagement at the top. Shame on everyone in Chicago/Cook County that allowed this to happen. I dare say, encouraged it through woke policies and nefarious political goals. We counted on you; you failed and let us down.

And the best part you get that “I’m about to be mugged” feeling the whole time!

The Mug Mile is virtually dead. Thanks to the arrogance and incompetence of BD Lightweight. Congrats Lori, your legacy will be that you watched as Chicago went down like the Titanic.
If this bill passes, say goodbye to local control over all Illinois parks and expect to see open drug and alcohol use, needles, no sanitation and fire hazards, but no ordinary park users.

Yes, and as a famous internet pundit says:
“Equity means YOUR home equity.”
