Court Strikes Down Landmarks Law

BREAKING NEWS!!!!
Crain's Chicago just reported at 5 p.m. on 01.30.09:

"An Illinois appellate court has struck down the city of Chicago's landmarks ordinance, saying it is unconstitutionally vague, putting in jeopardy the city's protection of more than 250 buildings and 50 historic districts."

As a member of Preservation Chicago, I will always support appropriate landmarking. This case has significant impact on the 43rd Ward.
