I swear this is the same clout heavy company that got $millions for bulldozing Meigs at midnight.

Guess they though they might as well use the guys with experience? :dunno:

Why did they take it down?

They think we need another drugstore:

Activists had been fighting to preserve the towering stack of eight cars, impaled on a silver spike, in Cermak Plaza, near Cermak Road and Harlem Avenue, where a Walgreens is to be built.

Seriously, that's probably on south Harlem Avenue. At the intersection of Harlem and Irving Park Road there are 4 Walgreens stores. In Chicago, there are 3 on Diversey Parkway, with each a maximum of 3 blocks away from the other.

Like with Starbucks, they know that they can't ask customers to cross the street.

1) Irving Park Road and Harlem. Oops. I guess they closed some of the older stores.

2) Diversey. Like I said, these Chicago neighborhoods are dense.

3) Berwyn. There is a Walgreens where they took down the spindle. I think they're building a new store to replace it.

We have CVS competing now, too and I think another chain is supposed to be coming.
