    Why Quantum Computing Is Coming to South Chicago

    Plans are underway to transform the former U.S. Steel site in South Chicago into the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park, a world-class quantum computing hub. With support from the governor and mayor and investments from IBM and the University of Chicago, shovels could be in the ground as early as next month. Block Club Chicago’s Maxwell Evans has been covering the plans and says neighbors still question what tangible benefits this megadevelopment could bring to the often overlooked South East side.  Good News: Buddy Guy’s Residency Want some more City Cast Chicago news?

    Why Chicago Is Always Talking About the Parking Meter Deal

    Parking in Chicago is always difficult, but especially when it’s cold outside. In 2008, City Council voted to privatize Chicago’s parking meters for 75 years in return for $1 billion. But in the years since, analysis after analysis has shown the meters were worth much more, and the city lost out on revenues while investors earn a profit, and Chicagoans pay some of the highest parking rates in the country. While he was at the Reader, Block Club Chicago reporter and editor Mick Dumke investigated the deal after it first passed. We’re revisiting his conversation with host Jacoby Cochran to hear why Chicago went for it, who challenged it, and how we feel the effects today.

    What’s in the City Budget? Plus, Meet a Photogenic River Otter

    After months of contentious council meetings, new tax proposals, and a few delayed votes, alders voted 27-23 to approve the mayor’s $17 billion budget for 2025.

Plus, we discuss the head of DFSS resigning, CPD’s “unsatisfying” consent decree progress, and one particularly photogenic river otter.
