Three weeks after taking office, 11th Ward Ald. Nicole Lee said she hopes the fact that she is Chicago’s first Chinese American City Council member helps combat a wave of anti-Asian crime that has frightened residents of Chinatown.
: Meet Chicago’s newest city council member, Nicole Lee, who replaces convicted Ald. Patrick Daley Thompson in the 11th Ward.
Former Ald. Ameya Pawar was the first Asian American to be elected to the Chicago City Council, representing the North Side’s 47th Ward for two terms from 2011 to 2019. Lee said she has not yet taken a position on whether to support the proposal from Neil Bluhm’s Rush Street Gaming to build the Rivers 78 Casino on vacant land between the South Loop and Chinatown along the Chicago River set to be redeveloped by Related Midwest into a new development known as The 78.
