The board has officially backed down on the valet proposal and the construction plans are being revised to address our safety concerns. It has been an exhausting road to reach this point but I am relieved that our building will remain secure. I am finished with this fight for now …

PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION AS A DEMONSTRATION OF SUPPORT FOR THE SAFETY OF RESIDENTS AT 405 N. WABASH
Final supporters
As residents, owners and tenants of 405 N. Wabash, your River Plaza Homeowners Association Board is requesting that you sign this petition.
Recent developments could impact your safety and our goal is to provide you the chance to show your support as we advocate for the best possible outcomes.
There are two development projects we are studying very closely to determine our exposure to safety risks. First, a 16-story condominium planned above the parking garage at 403 N. Wabash, and second, the new Beacon Tavern’s desire to operate a valet service in the front circle drive of 405 N. Wabash.
We have contracted experts who are providing reports which serve as the basis for our safety concerns. We have been in communication with Alderman Reilly regarding these findings.
Please sign this petition as a demonstration of support for our efforts.

Reaching this level of support confirms that our concerns for the building are shared by many of you. The work is exhausting but seeing this backing reminds me why we cannot back down from these developers.

We hit one hundred signatures today. The process of analyzing these development risks has been exhausting, but knowing this many of you are watching closely helps keep the momentum moving forward.

The work ahead is exhausting and progress feels slow but we need eyes on these safety risks right now. Getting this list past one hundred signatures gives our experts the weight they need when we speak to the office of the Alderman.

I have concerns that the foundation of 405 will not support the adjacent structure. What assurances do we have to guarantee that 405 will not incur cracks in our walls, floors, ceilings, and pipes?
When we bought this place 20 yrs ago, the circular drive with open space is what got us attracted to buy in this building, The increase in traffic will create very tight and unsafe situation for the residence of this building and their visitors. I oppose to both the projects.
I object to the building of a condo over the garage. That's clearly not a good use of the space. Valet parking would be a nightmare. I don't want valets racing around our private parking space. Let them valet on the street like everyone else does.
I am very concerned about the safety issues involved with the building over the garage. I also strongly believe that valet parking for the restaurant would make the driveway unsafe for pedestrians as well as much too congested for the temporary parking and short term parking for residents.
On a holiday weekend, even with a 15 minute time limit, our doorman had difficulty keeping the circle driveway clear in case of an emergency. The valet service cannot be approved .

We are very concerned about both safety and access to the garage being compromised by the proposed new building & valet service. We have 3 young children and the additional congestion and traffic in the circle drive & surrounding areas is of great concern when we are entering/exiting our building on foot.
