The Saga Of Big Chicks

  2. From the Windy City Times:

    While Harris believes the license application is what triggered the city response, Fire also thinks a developer is behind this. "Coincidentally a developer has bought the adjacent laundromat and plans on tearing it down to put up a huge high rise," she wrote. "I think Chicks is in the way."
