Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

Still can’t believe the city removed the profitable pedestrian street in River North to allow for 3 lanes of unprofitable traffic instead
