The December Issue Of Chicago Magazine

I just finished reading the December issue of Chicago magazine, and it has a lot of good articles in it this month. In the "312" section is a piece about how Mayor Brandon Johnson's approval rating has dropped to 25%, and how he could learn from how Mayor Richard J. Daley and his son, Richard M. were able to retain power and popularity for a combined 43 years. Another article discusses Chicago's $1 billion budget shortfall for 2025 and how it got there. There is an article about a really nice, 3-story, 3,000 square foot 19th Century Old Town Row House on the market for just under 1.5 million (which would be a tremendous bargain here in Denver). And in the "Backroom" section, there is an interview with respected Chicago newsman Bob Sirott, who back when I lived in Chicago was a well-known rock and roll DJ. All in all, a really interesting issue.
