After months of seeking repairs to their apartment buildings, some South Side residents demand even more changes to improve the quality of life for renters, they say.
The Chatham residents living in an apartment building with addresses 219 E. 79th St., and 7908 S. Prairie Ave., called for the city to inspect the building for structural issues days before the property owner is expected to appear in Cook County Circuit Court.
The management company and the owner of the properties dispute residents’ claims about deteriorating conditions, saying they have been making improvements in recent months.
