Highland Park Description Unfair
- Share via
What terrific news that Highland Park will be the focus of a revitalization and redevelopment effort [“Highland Park Comeback May Be Model of Urban Revival,” March 22].
As a longtime resident of Highland Park and the surrounding communities, however, I strenuously object to the characterization of our neighborhood as “moribund,” “scuffed,” “sorry” and “depressed.”
Leave it to The Times to look for and find the worst in a community. Maybe a fresh look from the outside, Chicago perhaps, will help.
