Three groups of DuPage County women have banded together to provide aid to dozens of asylum-seekers and new immigrants arriving daily in Chicago. Two areas we are concentrating on is attempting to find affordable housing and mentors, said Patricia Motto, 73, of Elmhurst, a retired civil rights lawyer and member of the Interfaith Community for Detained Immigrants board of directors.
The group has been working with Half the Sky of Elmhurst and 6,000 Moms of Wheaton to help stock a storage unit across from Chicago s Greyhound bus station. Its clients are legal asylum-seekers who have been processed at the border and allowed into the United States.

Condominiums are spoke on real estate cycle
Q: When was the first condominium created in Illinois?
A: The Illinois Condominium Property Act was adopted in 1962 and was effective July 1, 1963. It is my understanding that the first declaration of condominium was recorded on July 31, 1963, in Cook County. It s been off to the races since then, and there are now thousands of condominium buildings in Illinois.
Notably, in the 1970s there was a trend to convert existing rental apartment buildings to the condominium form of ownership. More recently, there has been a trend, of sorts, to de-convert condominium buildings to rental apartment buildings. As the demand for housing continues to change, I suspect we may see many of the de-converted condominiums converted back to condominiums at some point. Such is the real estate cycle.
