While renovations were made to fix unsafe, unsanitary conditions in the foreclosed complex, some residents may have to leave due to unpaid rent.
Residents have been fighting since April to have health and safety concerns addressed, but are still living in conditions that include broken windows, leaking ceilings and pests.
While some repairs have been made by a temporary property manager appointed earlier this month, residents say mold and pest problems have not been fixed.
In solidarity with Occupy Chicago, local residents will gather Saturday morning to protest how tenants are being treated after their building was foreclosed.
