Locals Rip Obama Over Latest Update To Controversial Presidential Library

At Chaney Braggs Apartments, located at 65th Street and Stony Island Avenue, the nearly two dozen tenants announced the formation of a union.

According to the group, a potential buyer intends to either renovate or completely demolish their building. Rent would increase in either case.

According to the tenants, a few other organizations joined them on Thursday morning in an effort to maintain the affordability of their apartments. “I want to stay right where I’m at. I don’t want to be forced out. I don’t want to be told I have to leave. I want to be able to stay,” said resident Kyana Butler. “I want to be able to let my daughter, and I want her to grow up in the same building I grew up in.”
