Three Easy Ways to Save the Park

Now is the time to act to save green space in Grant Park. Let city officials know you are glad that Chicagoans have protected open space in the heart of the city since 1836 and don't want to see that change now. Voice the message - there must be no buildings constructed in this part of the park. Here are three easy ways to get that message across:

1) Attend the public meeting tonight (Monday, September 10) at Daley Bicentennial Plaza, 337 East Randolph Street. The meeting starts at 6:3o PM - ARRIVE EARLY, as supporters of the construction project are being bused in, and their plan is to pack the seats to prevent neighborhood residents from entering. If you can, wear green to show your support for green space in Chicago.

2) Call Mayor Daley's office at (312) 744-3300 - this takes only a minute or two. Let him know you live in Chicago and you oppose construction in Daley Bicentennial Plaza.

3) Email Arnold Randall, Chicago's new Commissioner of Planning and Development at arandall@cityofchicago.org. Let him know you live in Chicago and you oppose construction in Daley Bicentennial Plaza.
