AJC Gets the Skinny from Carl and Otis

So...I guess Carl, you have to be the cat.
Carl is EVERYWHERE.
The AJC now has an article about next Wednesday’s 315 W. Ponce session with moderator Otis White. In it, Carl (of “Carl reports this”, “Carl tells us that” fame) says he’s looking for a little healing.
And White? Well, he sounds pretty psyched about the process…though he didn’t sit through that last session. He’ll reportedly receive $4,500 for the 2-hour session, but if he’s able to make a decent amount of headway between the neighborhood and the developer, it’ll be money well-spent.
For once, I’m speechless (also totally humbled and highly amused!). One of my neighbors pointed out that the only two quotes were from Black and White.
Daggnabit! That’s a much better line!
How can I have missed it!? I was already three-quarters of the way there!
If only your blog could be like a BlueMountain card, a MIDI of Ebony & Ivory could play in the background.
Not to completely change topic; but did anyone else notice that Civic Strategies has an office in the 315 building? http://bit.ly/8Jze7
That’s curious, Carl. Assuming they lease the space and have no profit motive, I suppose one could make the argument that the project, as proposed, would increase competition over parking for office tenants, thus increasing inconvenience for Civic Strategies. That would work against the accusation that Mr. White is biased *in favor* of the development.
Very curious.
