As Temps Near 90, Loop Residents Say Building Refuses To Turn On AC
Some reached out to CBS 2 saying their building's management refuses to turn on the air conditioning.
CHICAGO (CBS) — We almost hit 90 degrees in Chicago this Memorial Day, and hundreds of people living in one downtown high-rise said they couldn’t escape it. Some reached out to CBS 2 saying their building’s management refuses to turn on the air conditioning. At this point, they tell CBS 2’s Tara Molina they are concerned for their safety.
The temperature cooled down a bit Monday night, but not in that high-rise at 200 N. Dearborn St. Residents sent photos of thermostats at 80-plus degrees — temperatures they say they can’t handle much longer.
