This is a tangent, but with all the articles I’ve read about the construction boom in south lakefront neighborhoods (e.g. Bronzeville, Woodlawn, etc.), I decided to drive around and check out the area. I’m *amazed* at the transformation in Bronzeville. I used to work there in 2009/2010 and it’s like night and day. I go there occasionally but hadn’t been for a year or two and even in that time frame, they’ve built so much and there’s construction everywhere. Awesome to see it and the area feels much wealthier and safer (there are high end cars parked on the street all over lol). I didn’t have much of a base for comparison when it comes to Woodlawn, but I saw a ton of new development there and got a similar impression. The boom doesn’t seem to be slowing, either, since I saw so much stuff under construction everywhere.
