@chicagobars I’ve been wondering about the purpose of this too because I think they will all at least have gone in front of the committee at this point

[Chicago Documenters @CHIdocumenters]

Hyde Park Union Church, at 5600 S. Woodlawn Ave., received a final recommendation from the Landmarks Commission. Funded in part by John D. Rockefeller, the 1906 building exemplifies the Richardsonian Romanesque style, and a 1926 addition incorporates Classical Revival elements.

@CCPSA_Chicago How many applications did you receive in total?

[Chicago Documenters @CHIdocumenters]

🗣️As 2023 comes to a close (and the running Google Doc in which we draft the #Newswire literally will not let us make any more suggestions/edits)…

We asked our Chi Docs to share what they've learned and their goals for 2024. Here’s what they had to say:

@rocio_reports @city_bureau * @BlockClubCHI that is

[India Daniels @indiawho]

I’ve been thinking about what Rocio’s sister says in this article: That Rocio would have wanted them to get the facts and figure out what caused the explosion and fire that killed her. https://t.co/eDroxJ39ZX

[India Daniels @indiawho]

It’s heartbreaking to be reading about @rocio_reports when she had so much left to write about her community and this city. Just this summer she followed up on her 2019 @city_bureau fellowship reporting with this article for @BlockClubChicago.

[Rocio Villaseñor @rocio_reports]

Update on this story I wrote as a fellow for @city_bureau in 2019. Gina Ramirez was able to accomplish her goal of opening a teen center in #BrightonPark.

More importantly, Rocio Villaseñor was a daughter, a sister, an aunt. I don’t have the words or the desire to wrap this up into a tidy conclusion but I’ve been truly moved by the outpouring of stories and support for her family. Please share/give https://t.co/NZMAMNTo2P

[India Daniels @indiawho]

In 2020, Rocio stepped up to document a couple @ChiPubSchools engagement roundtables held in Spanish—to date, the first and only #CHIdocumenters non-English language coverage and something that I will always be so grateful and proud of her for. https://t.co/MRXqW9MMs3
