So, I started looking into the ownership of the plot of land that I mentioned in the last entry. The City of Chicago does not own it. The Cook County Recorder of Deeds has no information regarding any transaction involving the plot in the electronic files. When I asked what that meant, I was told that it meant there has been no sale or development of the land since at least 1985.
It also means that to find out who does own the land, I have to go downtown to the Recorder's Office and look through the (gasp!) paper-and-ink tract books to research the ownership further.
Undisturbed for at least 25 years is a good sign that they won't be developing this summer, eh?
