The Avenue K Wetland Neighbors requests your presence at this public
meeting. The Chicago Department of Environment along with Alderman John
Pope, Chicago's 10th Ward, are convening this meeting to allow developers to
reveal the plans for a massive housing development to be constructed along
134th Street, including development of the 134th Street Marsh parcel, which
was targeted for preservation in the Calumet Open Space Reserve Plan. The
area is located on the southeast side of Chicago between the William Powers
Conservation Area/Wolf Lake and Powderhorn Lake & Prairie FP.

 

Please come to the meeting and demand that the promises of the Calumet Open
Space Reserve Plan are kept by our elected officials.

 

The developer's website is: http://www.134thstreet.com/ At the website you
will see that the developer is trying to pitch the project as
environmentally sensitive and leaving in place green spaces.
