We need to revitalize the downtown area but this is too large of a housing complex- parking and traffic will be a nightmare!!

We live right by the library. This building is too large for the area, the height should be at least one floor less. I am concerned with parking issues and further congested traffic on Glenview Rd. I shave noticed throughout Glenview our roads are much more congested than even five or ten years ago. That is due to all the apartment complexes that have been built. Would prefer a building like this closer to Glenview and Waukegan. This plan is definitely more esthetic than the ugly one built at Church and Glenview Rd.

We have to many rental units not being rented and other developments with high vacancies. This will be a disaster.

Way too big & ambitious - would negatively change the character of the town

The proposed development will create a dangerous intersection and negatively impact the downtown area.

I feel this project would be detrimental to our surrounding neighborhood and to downtown Glenview in general. We don’t need more housing in Glenview’s downtown area. We need restaurants or even a youth center!

Traffic is a horrible and unsafe mess at that intersection, not to mention the fact that we don’t need more retail space in that area - another grocery store - ridiculous! I give the most blame to our representatives, not the developer. In my opinion, they are enablers, who can stop this if they forego their own personal interests. BTW I don’t live near that intersection, but pass it once or twice almost daily.

Absolutely hideous! A nice restaurant and a few shops would do the trick in that spot.

As a frequent pedestrian I am concerned about increased traffic at an already congested intersection. Also proposed building looks overbearing and heavy on the size of the property.

Glenview is already over crowded. If this project goes through, I would move out of Glenview after being a resident and paying taxes to Glenview for over 50 years.

Would rather see restaurants and stores to entice people to get off the train and visit Glenview.

This project will create issues with the train tracks. It is also too dense a use for the site. I would propose that if they turned the building around so that the courtyard faces Glenview road, people could see the trains better.

It is already a nightmare to get through this area. Plus, it would add additional dangers to the children that travel back and forth to school and the library. Please reconsider your decision.
