DePaul University wants to demolish five century-old buildings on its Lincoln Park campus to build a modern four-story practice basketball facility.
A DePaul University proposal to demolish five century-old buildings in the heart of its Lincoln Park campus to build a modern four-story practice basketball facility was met with skepticism and criticism at a community meeting Thursday night. To make way for the basketball facility, the DePaul board of trustees approved plans to demolish five buildings on the northwest corner of Sheffield Avenue and Belden avenues. Four of them are three-story walk-up townhouses.
University officials say zoning for that lot is set aside for a future conference center and hotel. “This land is really the only viable option we have for this project,” said Peter Coffey, associate vice president for community and government relations. The meeting, co-hosted by the university and the Sheffield Neighborhood Association, was the first public presentation of details of the plan since the announcement of the initiative in late August.
