Lincoln Tower Building Conditions

At a glance

Based on official auto-captions; names and figures may be misheard.

What: A tenants' organization asked for an official building and air-quality inspection of the Lincoln Tower apartment building, citing recurring plumbing backups, an HVAC system not cleaned, no janitorial service in common areas, train exhaust from the nearby Third Street tracks, and poor lighting on the walk from the nearby garage.
Where it stands: The Mayor directed the public works director to arrange a plumbing inspection, and an alderwoman asked that an HVAC inspection be added and that temporary lighting be pursued.

A tenant speaker described the conditions during citizens' requests; the Mayor and Alderwoman Purchase responded with the inspection and lighting follow-ups. Related: Landlord registry referendum.
