New Bike Lanes Under LSD Solely to Discriminate Against Homeless in Uptown, Attorneys Allege
An amended complaint was recently filed alleging discrimination against homeless people in the Uptown neighborhood by the city of Chicago. Lawyers from Chicago Coalition for the Homeless, Uptown People’s Law Center, and Butler Rubin filed the complaint on behalf of the homeless residents of Uptown who took shelter under the viaducts before the construction. The encampment was destroyed by police in September to make way for bridge repair.
