Original Posts concerning CBP Original Post Naming Discussion Naming Poll Meeting Thread Renaming Primary Renaming Poll #2 Renaming Run Off Compromise Vote CBP is open to all citizens of Chicago who would like to take an active role in shaping the city for the future. In the most basic of terms CBP is concerned with development in the city of Chicago. From new construction; including Architectural design, mixed usage, pedestrian orientation of the space and orientation towards public transit usage, to the Intelligent Redevelopment of existing structures. We feel that to much of the cityÂ's space is being wasted on poorly planned structures. If this continues ChicagoÂ's legacy of Architectural greatness could be in jeopardy.
