On Friday, I was covering a Chicago Zoning Board of Appeals' hearing on the
Night Ministry's application to turn a home into a shelter for homeless youth in
North Lawndale. Usually, those things go by fairly quick - 10 minutes, 20 minutes tops. My plan was to attend the meeting, then go down to North Lawndale to get the picture of the building.
Only problem? That meeting wound up lasting for an hour and a half. And by the time I got out of the City Hall, it was already 3:00 PM. And by the time I got to the house, it was getting dusky. I think I may have been better off simply going there another day.
On the bright side - as I told
hettie_lz, at least I got a chance to take this pretty cool picture.
