What Will Replace Damen Silos After Demolition?
City Cast Chicago - Podcast készítő City Cast
Perhaps you’ve seen them while driving on I-55, riding the Orange Line, or even watching that one Transformers movie – the Damen Silos have been an iconic southwest side structure for over a century. Despite being abandoned for the last 50 years, the once revolutionary grain elevators have been a key site for urban explorers, graffiti artists, and McKinley Park neighbors alike. Now the city has issued a demolition permit, and owners say it’ll take about six months. The City Cast Chicago team discusses neighbors’ demolition concerns, the ongoing preservation fight, and how we would redevelop the land.
