Tenants in North Lawndale, Chicago apartments say conditions are uninhabitable at 1256 South Independence Boulevard.Faith-based leaders and local officials on Saturday joined tenants of a North Lawndale apartment building in an effort to expose what they say are uninhabitable conditions and predatory practices."We are sick and tired, and we're not going to take it anymore," Greater Galilee Missionary Baptist Church Pastor Steve Spiller said.
"To turn people's gas off because you're not doing your part and lights and things of that nature - it's inhumane," Spiller said. Wilson said the landlord told her it would cost too much to fix everything, and with Section 8 canceling payments because of the conditions, she was sent a termination letter.
