SoNo’s developer, Smithfield Properties, is mulling a lawsuit against the City of Evanston over stalled plans to develop the long-vacant Kendall College site in northeast Evanston into 19 single-family homes.
The local alderman, it appears, is unequivocally in favor of the project. In Evanston, however, that’s no guarantee that a project will move forward. NITBYs – not in their back yarders – and tree-huggers can be equally as influential as NIMBYs.
The site, as you can see in a frame (above) captured from one of our many video drive-bys, is currently parklike.
