Thank you for caring and personal commitment in support of efforts to make a better place for all. In all fairness to the city and HPD, Chi-Town's long and unfortunate accepted history for being the gathering place of prostitution and derelicts is truly a dragon that has grown out of control. It will more than likely take state, city and public intervention to change the character of the area. To give us a sense of how long this has been going on let's reference the local area park name. "Aala", translation: Have Nothing Park.
