This is the only fairly large, American-fare, comparably reasonably-priced, garage parking adjacent, extended hours restaurant in all of downtown Evanston. It’s suitable for groups of teens, students, families, and anyone else who doesn’t want or doesn’t have the $ for the other upscale places rotating in and out of the smaller storefronts. And it’s ESTABLISHED. People who live outside Evanston will patronize because of the close parking and knowing it’s “always” been there. It doesn’t make sense to allow the developer to gut the 1st floor established business to create 1 massive space of a sq ft no one wants because the commercial rents downtown are astronomical. Also, the central st theater has been gone for almost 30 years, and now you’re going to let them halve the number of remaining movie screens?! What are all these proposed newly renting residents downtown supposed to walk to and do?
Traci supported: Save Evanston's Chili's: A Community Cornerstone Worth PreservingThis Chili's has a special place in the hearts of all Evanstonians - NU students included. It's a place of community that cannot be sacrificed for yet another high rise condo building! We simply can't let this happen!!
Claudia supported: Save Evanston's Chili's: A Community Cornerstone Worth PreservingIn addition to the issues mentioned in the original post, there is the often-overlooked issue of the artificial light from tall buildings drawing migrating birds into developed areas, where they can die from collisions.
