Here we go!
This is an easy challenge; let’s band together have a ton of fun for a good cause. We all know what we need to do. It’s time to use the limitless power of our collective minds and bodies to clean and beautify our neighborhoods.
A fly-dumped toilet
Another photo from the archives. This toilet sat for months on a vacant lot. Normalized blight is the term we use to describe how certain environmental abuses persist for decades.
Fly-dumped tires on South Perry
This was a pretty big pile
A clasic example of embedded trash. Easy to dial-out?
We believe that it is possible to dramatically reduce the amount of “surface trash” we so often see.
We’re getting up-and-running very quickly
Now that we have turned the corner, here’s another example of what we’re trying to eliminate from our neighborhoods. Broken glass.
There’s something about Perry (5800 South)
Fly-dumped rubbish. A toilet base (wrapped in plastic) was recently added to the pile above. This particular section of South Perry is starting to become rather popular with fly dumpers. The other interesting issue to note is the “latency factor” relative to the resolution of these issues. Given the fact that there is a community […]
Obscured fire hydrant
We have established a collection of similar photos. It’s hard to fathom how this can be acceptable, even if GPSs are used to locate the hydrants. This is something you definitely do not see on every side of town. Interesting to track, which we have done for over a decade. This is an issue we […]
Projectile in the ground in the 4700 Blk. of S. St. Lawrence
Something noticed after a brief walk.
A classic example of “excessive trash” on the ground
This is another photo from our files. We have seen countless examples of this in certain communities throughout Chicago. As a collective, we can dial-out this pervasive issue. Let’s go!
The classic sinkhole
This was a pretty bad one. Thanks to a tip, we were able to get a quick pic, not that there was any rush. The sinkhole remained untouched for weeks. It was ultimately resolved.
