Save the Wisdom Bridge Theatre

Developers: Richard Aronson and Scott Sinar

Email blast from Alderman Joe Moore: Yes

Developer history of campaign contributions to Alderman Joe Moore: Yes


Attend this meeting to oppose the demolition of the Historic Wisdom Bridge Theatre. Rich Aronson is known as a lightweight developer who often buckles under pressure.

As with all 49th Ward developer meetings, Alderman Joe Moore has previously been paid-off and will be in support of the project.

Developers stick together, so many former pay-offs will be seeded in the meeting to show support. Although the deck is loaded, outstanding community opposition can sink this project.


Please attend the meeting at:

Willye B. White Recreation Center 1610 W. Howard Street Chicago, IL. 60626, on

Wednesday, May 5th 7pm.

Howard CTA Station

Howard CTA Station

Howard is a station on the Chicago 'L' system, located at 1649 West Howard Street in Chicago, Illinois (directional coordinates 7600 north, 1700 west). It is the northernmost station on the CTA Red Line (and the outlying terminus of the North Side Main Line), and also has connections with the Yellow Line and the Purple Line; incidentally, the Yellow Line has one of its two termini here, while the Purple Line does not go south of this station outside of weekday rush hours.
The station is in the Rogers Park neighborhood on the border with Evanston. It was originally opened in 1908 and was rebuilt in 1921. An escalator was added in 1964. A Park and Ride with 634 spaces is provided at this station. The Rogers Park neighborhood, located in the far northeast corner of Chicago, has four El stations (N to S): Howard, Jarvis, Morse, and Loyola.

large maintenance yard and rolling stock storage facility, known as Howard Yard, is just north of the station. Northbound Purple and Yellow Line trains pass through the yard on the way to their respective branches, and Red Line trains travel from the north-bound platform to the south-bound platform via a balloon loop in the yard.

As of 2007 the station is being redeveloped to improve handicapped access and provide an additional entrance from the adjacent bus terminal.
