Evicted Lincoln Place tenants set up tent city to protest housing loss

Published:

Dozens of tenants who were evicted from the Lincoln Place apartment complex by their landlord, Denver-based Apartment Investment Management Co., have set up a tent city to protest the loss of their affordable housing. The company, one of the largest real estate management companies in the country, plans to redevelop the land into condos. The ex-tenants and their supporters say they will stay put until the landlord agrees to renegotiate a settlement that will allow them to return to their apartments.

So this week, Q-Line wants to know, “Do you think a compromise between the tenants and their former landlord? If so, what form should it take?”

Call (310) 285-8106 before Friday at 5 p.m. and we’ll print your responses in the weekend edition. Please try to limit your comments to a minute or less. It might help to think first about the wording of your response.
