Briefly

In a standing room only crowd Wednesday night, Ald.Andre Vasquez, 40th, led a meeting Wednesday evening alongside city officials where he presented a proposal to turn the Diplomat Motel into transitional housing with a variety of on-site services for homeless residents of the ward.Through the new proposal, the Diplomat Motel at 5230 N. Lincoln Ave. would be redeveloped following in the steps of a pilot project in 2020 by which a handful of downtown hotels, including Hotel One Sixty-Six in the Gold Coast, were transformed into supportive housing for 259 individuals.
