Some Kenwood tenants return to high-rise two years after deadly fire, safety concerns remain
Two years after a deadly fire, some residents of the Harper Square high-rise in Kenwood are moving back in, but many remain displaced. Tenants report little assistance and ongoing frustrations about their living situations. Building management has begun returning tenants from the first 14 floors, with hopes to get approval for more floors soon. Concerns persist about fire safety, as the building lacks mandatory sprinklers due to its age. Residents emphasize the need for better fire safety measures. They continue to seek answers about their living conditions and the future of the building.
