There is a podcast about this - "The City That Sold Itself To Wall Street":

It's always interesting to me when topics like this pop up in several places at once. I wonder what the common prompt was.

Cautionary Tales (a great podcast, BTW, if folks aren't already familiar) published that episode last week. Half as Interesting also published a video about it a couple weeks before that.

99% Invisible brought it up in a parking related episode back in May (I wouldn't be shocked if that's what prompted HAI and CT to look into it), around the same time as this Chicago Tribune piece.
