For Logan Square-area politician Delia Ramirez, the work has already started—long before her job does.
A century-old building in Humboldt Park fell to the wrecking ball. But at least one group fought to save it: Logan Square Preservation.

The Skewer, a review of op-eds, comedic debate and political games, hits Café Mustache’s stage on the first Wednesday of every month—that’s tomorrow. And it’s free. Progressive Logan Square Alderman Carlos Ramirez-Rosa said he wants to take his fight against the status quo to Washington, D.C. The budget’s proposed taxes, Ramirez-Rosa said, will burden regular, working-class Chicagoans.
