Community News
In her weekly report to her constituents, 43rd Ward Alderman Vi Daley has provided an update on the new Trader Joe's location on Diversey and other business news.
After several drafts, long debate and discussion, Lincoln Park Aldermen Scott Waguespack (32nd) and Vi Daley (43rd) introduced the "Mobile Food Facility" ordinance into the Chicago City Council chambers on Wednesday, July 28, 2010.
With hundreds of families calling the walkable streets of Lincoln Park home, and with abundant green space in the neighborhood, it is no surprise that the community is also home to its fair share of dogs and cats. Providing services to the Lincoln Park neighborhood’s four-legged friends, a new business dedicated to safe, quality pet care has recently opened its doors.
Lakefront Sculpture Exhibit
LAKEFRONT SCULPTURE EXHIBIT (LSE)
Every year, visitors and residents stroll the streets in Lincoln Park and enjoy sculptures throughout the neighborhood. The LPCC supports beautifying our neighborhood with contemporary public art through sponsorship of the Lakefront Sculpture Exhibit (LSE), which is spearheaded by 43rd Ward Alderman Vi Daley and 44th Ward Alderman Tom Tunney and entirely funded by private contributions.
This year, the LSE selected 15 new sculptures that will be on display from May 2010 through May 2011 – we encourage you to view all of the pieces throughout the year. Don’t miss the sculpture the LPCC sponsored, which is located near 2700 N. Clark, in front of Best Buy. Artists throughout the Chicago area apply to participate in the LSE and in addition to having their artwork on display, artists chosen to participate in the LSE receive a cash award of $1,500. Each sculpture will also be available for purchase.
Find out more about the LSE. Contact 43rd Ward Alderman Vi Daley’s office at (773) 327-9111 with questions.
