Dear Neighbor,
The City and State are rushing to permanently convert the Chicago Lake Shore Hotel into a 760+ bed homeless shelter — without any public hearing, zoning review, or health and safety assessment.

Every dollar helps us stop this before it becomes permanent.
This is happening right now at 4900 S. DuSable Lake Shore Drive, in the heart of our neighborhood — and we’re being left out of the process.
We’ve gathered over 1,100 petition signatures and packed a town hall with 300+ concerned residents. But now, we must take the next step: legal action.
We are raising $32,000 to retain an attorney and file an emergency injunction to pause the shelter’s expansion and demand transparency from the City.

Every dollar helps us stop this before it becomes permanent.
