Former statehouse candidate suing Loyola over building’s expansion over Calhoun
|
Calhoun Street resident Fenn French, who just concluded an unsuccessful campaign to unseat state Rep. Neil Abramson, has filed a lawsuit saying that Loyola University’s planned expansion of Monroe Hall violates a 50-year-old agreement to prevent the building’s windows from looking into his home, according to an article by reporter Sam Winstrom of The Maroon student newspaper. During his legislative campaign, French alluded to his dispute with Loyola in an appearance before the Upper Hurstville Neighborhood Association earlier this month. The association was discussing an unrelated issue, the possible rezoning of the DePaul medical campus owned by Children’s Hospital, and French spoke up to say as a neighbor of Loyola, institutional zoning would allow growth “to the sky.”
