A Wrigleyville developer wants to build a large, high density 6 unit condo building in Bowmanville at 2046 Foster Ave. The property currently has a solid brick 2-flat and side yard. The requested up-zoning change is from an RS3 to an RT4 to allow for a 6 unit building.

• This will set a precedent for Bowmanville. If this zoning change is allowed, many more buildings like this will be built throughout Bowmanville.
• This large building will change the character of Bowmanville. Part of the charm of Bowmanville is its lower density. We are not Wrigleyville or Lincoln Park.
• It will increase noise. Especially from the planned roof decks.
• It will increase parking and traffic issues.
• It will increase property taxes.
• It will reduce green space. Three mature trees will be removed.
• This building is 44 feet tall and larger than all other comparable buildings in our neighborhood. It will tower over other buildings blocking natural light
• This developer recently had controversy in Andersonville (google “Andersonville greystone developer”)
• This zoning change will only benefit the developer and realtor monetarily, not Bowmanville’s residents!

Please help fight this zoning change by signing the petition and calling the Alderman’s office at 312-744-6858 to voice your concern

Please put your Address in the comments in case we need to prove you live in Bowmanville.
